Abstract
A 12 2/12 year-old boy was admitted to our hospital with the complaint of rapid growth. His birth and postnatal growth history, developmenta l retardation, physical examination and skeletal radiograms suggested Sotos syndrome, CT and MRI findings revealed septo-optic dysplasia (SO D), which is usually characterized by poor growth, together with cereb ral gigantism in our case, These two entities are both rare and as far as we know this is the first patient in the Literature with Sotos syn drome and SOD.
