I don't know of any caselaw per se relating to restricted growth. I believe it hinges on how the growth restriction affects the individual's ability to self care, walk etc as to which parts of DLA caselaw would help your appeal.
You could try contacting the restricted growth association as their members may have experiences to assist in your appeal.
