| dc.description | The following review article main objective seeks to provide an approach from a health care first level institution, of one of the mostfrequent queries in pediatrics and general medicine, stunted growth. The relation of consults for short stature in children is higher in boysrather than girls, but most of the times girls have more prevalence of organic diseases and growth disturbances than boys. When wereceive a patient who complains of short stature, we should ask a series of questions and take some anthropometric measures to classifythe child and determine the diagnosis. The first level doctor has to understand the meaning of these measures and determine if the child’sshort stature is whether pathological or physiological. Then the child has to be classified again, if it is a physiological short stature, heneeds to be group into genetic short stature or constitutional delay of growth and development, which constitutes by far the 80% of thecases.
