This review by Shaikh et al. focuses on the management of Prader–Willi Syndrome in a practical and adaptable manner. It will be useful to both paediatric and adult endocrinologists.

The authors have taken care to talk about actual groundwork. This includes the formation of a multidisciplinary team to manage patients with these complex requirements, and undertaking a focused clinical history and examination, presented in a useful and easy-to-digest tabular fashion, for the benefit of clinicians working with these patients (going through esoteric descriptions can make endocrinologists very nervous!). In particular, a thorough review of growth hormone therapy, alongside management of nutrition and puberty, is valuable for adult and paediatric endocrinologists, and can be applied easily.

This article would add confidence to any clinician’s repertoire, whilst dealing with a complicated and rare endocrine syndrome.
