This Pennsylvania House resolution designates July 22, 2024, as Hemihyperplasia Awareness Day to highlight a congenital condition where one side of a child's body grows larger than the other. The bill aims to increase public understanding of the disorder, which can be isolated or linked to other medical syndromes, and to encourage further research into its causes and treatments.
