Growth Hormone Help for Slow-Growing Children
Dr. Walter C. Alvarez discusses pituitary growth hormone and its limited availability for children who lag in growth. He notes the need for human pituitary glands, the work of Dr Li, and the National Pituitary Agency in Baltimore collecting glands from autopsies to extract hormone for treatment and research. He advocates tissue donation and law changes to aid organ and tissue use for medical advances.
