Informations about the disease

Clinical Comment

Over-growth syndromes form a group of rare congenital diseases with the main characteristic of a circumscribed (segmental) or complete pathological growth that can be detected during pregnancy, shortly after birth or in the first years of life. High growth is defined as a body length/height above the 97th percentile. High growth can either be a norm variant ("constitutional high growth" or "familial high growth") or have a pathological cause. Pathological macrosomia is usually syndromal. There is a high degree of phenotypic overlap between the syndromes in question.
