class=""h4"">Objective

To characterize the endocrine phenotype of patients with Shwachman-Diamond syndrome (SDS).

class=""h4"">Study design

Clinically indicated endocrine screening data from 43 patients with SDS or SDS-like presentation were analyzed according to sex, age, and genetic testing. In addition to 25 patients with biallelic Shwachman-Bodian-Diamond syndrome (SBDS) gene mutations, we evaluated 18 patients with cytopenias who were receiving pancreatic enzyme replacement but were without SBDS mutation. We performed a retrospective review of growth records and clinically indicated endocrine evaluations.

class=""h4"">Results

Of patients with SBDS mutations, 2 had low stimulated growth hormone levels, 2 had mildly elevated thyrotropin levels, 5 had abnormal glucose levels, and 1 had an elevated follicle-stimulating hormone level (post transplantation). In contrast, 1 patient without SBDS mutations had postprandial hyperglycemia and 3 had mildly low free thyroxine levels without short stature. Endocrine abnormalities were identified in 19 % of short patients and 26 % of the whole group. Of patients with SBDS mutations, 56 % had a height expressed in SD units from the mean for age and sex of <?1.8, in contrast to only 12 % of patients without SBDS mutations (38 % of the whole group). Body mass index z score was significantly greater in the group with SBDS mutations (P?<?.001).

class=""h4"">Conclusion

Although short stature was more common in patients with SBDS mutations, no consistent endocrine phenotype was observed in patients with SDS regardless of genetic testing.
