Congenital hypopituitarism due to novel compound heterozygous POU1F1 gene mutation: A case report and review of the literature
Failure to thrive is one of the most common complaints in the endocrinology and genetics clinic. An 8-month-old girl with presentation of motor developmental delay, failure to thrive, and midline facial defects, with history of hypoglycemia at birth and central congenital hypothyroidism (CCH), was b...
