Extractions: small-for-gestational-age [SGA] children whose pregnancies had been complicated by intrauterine growth retardation [IUGR]. Their common findings were short stature without catch-up growth, normal head size for age, a distinctive triangular face, low-set ears and incurving fifth fingers. These two groups of patients are now considered to have had variations of the same disorder that we now call Russell-Silver Syndrome [RSS] in the U.S. and Silver-Russell Syndrome [SRS] in Europe. One interesting and important aspect of the Russell-Silver syndrome is its variation in phenotype. In this context, a phenotype is all the physical characteristics and abnormalities found in an individual patient that are attributed specifically to RSS. Some individuals with RSS have many traits, thus a severe phenotype, while others have very few traits, thus a mild phenotype. When first described, RSS was NOT thought to be a genetic disorder because it recurred within families rarely, and when it did recur, its pattern of transmission failed to follow a consistent genetic mode of inheritance. More recent understandings of genetic mechanisms have led scientists to conclude that RSS is genetic, but its genetics are not simple. Scientists now believe that the RSS phenotype is associated with more than one genotype.

Children with Russell-Silver syndrome are born small and generally achieve less than 5 feet at adult height. Side-to-side asymmetry is fairly common, for example a left body part may be larger than the right counterpart. This asymmetry may occur anywhere including the face. Other findings include excessive sweating , a small triangular face which makes the skull look large by comparison, inward curving 5th fingers, and pigmented skin lesions called cafe-au-lait spots Symptoms Return to top slow growth from before birth
