Abstract:
Objective To investigate the long-term outcome in the girls with central precocious puberty (CPP) treated by gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogue (GnRHa). Methods Thirty girls with idiopathic CPP treated with GnRHa for (23.0?7.6)months achieved their near final heights after (3.2?0.8)years follow-up. Comparisons were made among their final adult height (FAH), target height (THt), predicted adult height(PAH)at the onset and the end of GnRHa treatment (PAH 1 and PAH 2) . Factors affecting the height gain were also analysed. Results PAH increased after the GnRHa treatment [ PAH 2(155.2?5.7)cm vs PAH 1 (150.7?5.4)cm,P
