A CHILD’S LARGER LEG

Key words: Isolated hemihyperplasia, Lower limb disporprotion, Cancer risk, Follow up

The Authors describe a case of isolated hemihyperplasia (HHI) diagnosed on a three-month-old female child. During a visit at our pediatric surgery disproportion of the limbs was noticed, so the child was sent to genetic counselling. HHI diagnosis, as a result of an increased cancer risk, requires a regular follow-up until end of development.
