Extreme emotional deprivation can interfere with a chemical production and cause chosocial dwarfism which appears at about age two – fifteen. Typically the child would be short and have an underdeveloped skeletal size. Childhood injuries often happen around these ages and are said to be caused by complete accidents or a child not being as attentive

and a medical doctorate. In close collaboration with the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Anthropology‚ Genetics‚ and Eugenics‚ he studied the phenomena of twins‚ as well as the physiology and pathology of dwarfism. He was also interested in people with different-colored irises and in the etiology and treatment of noma ("water cancer" of the cheek). This latter disease‚ widespread in the Gypsy Camp‚ had been previously almost unknown in Europe. Mengeles first

Microcephaly also makes the head smaller than it normally is. This disease is so rare that it only affects one in every 666‚666 in the United States. Those who have microcephaly are usually mentally retarded and will have problems with hyperactivity‚ dwarfism‚ seizures‚ balance‚ speech and motor problems‚ as well as others. The child’s head can not be treated to become a normal shape or size but the treatments focus on ways to decrease the impact of the deformities and neurological disabilities. Microcephaly
