dc.description.abstract	While there can be no scientific explanation for either Gulliver's Lilliputians or for the "Little folk" so beloved by our Irish friends, the following is a brief account of the causes of stunted growth. As the subject is so extensive the account itself must be "dwarfed". Dwarfism is defined as a stunting of skeletal growth and as such does not include failure of sexual development which is termed infantilism. However in clinical practice it is unusual to have to distinguish between the two as they frequently occur together.	en_GB
