Abstract
The girl, seven yeors of age, showed marked retarded growth, delayed eruption of teeth, and absence of 2nd premolrs and 7th molars in both sides of lower jaw. Diagnosis by the Clinics of The Fuculty of Medicine, Kyushu University as due to a hypophyseal dwarfism, and previous history of the patient as disclosed by her parent that she was delivered in the midst of a flood, would seem to account well for the present condition of the girl. In this report, general observation including the physical state, blood pictures, mental state, as well as detailed appearance of the teeth were described, and treatment on the defective teeth including amputation and capping of the pulp was described.
