Children who are much smaller or larger than their peers may have a growth disorder caused by a pituitary gland issue. The pituitary gland produces growth hormones and, on occasion, produces too much or too little of a hormone, causing stunting or an overstimulation of growth. Possible treatments include hormone therapy, other medicines, and, in some cases, surgery or radiation therapy. There are over 300 types of dwarfism, which may involve congenital issues also impacting other organs, physical problems, learning, and/or mental involvement. There are other congenital disorders, illnesses, or diseases that can impact growth, such as cystic fibrosis, Turner syndrome, Crohn’s disease, Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia, and disorders of the musculoskeletal system, or trauma or problems with the growth plates.

Musculoskeletal disorders include a wide range of disorders that may result from hereditary, congenital, or acquired pathologic processes. Impairments may result from infectious, inflammatory, or degenerative processes, traumatic or developmental events, or neoplastic, vascular, or toxic/metabolic diseases.
