摘要
This case describes a patient with Russel Silver Syndrome (RSS), a rare congenital syndrome characterized by restricted intrauterine and postnatal growth. Clinically relevant orthopedic findings of RSS include short stature and limb length discrepancy. This case highlights the difficulty of limb lengthening in patients with RSS, as treatment requires careful consideration of nutritional status, healing potentials, and bone strength.
