MECHANISM OF PRECOCIOUS PUBERTY IN GIRLS WITH McCUNE-ALBRIGHT SYNDROME (MAS)

Fulvestrant treatment of precocious puberty in girls with McCune-Albright syndrome

UNLABELLED BACKGROUND McCune-Albright Syndrome (MAS) is usually characterized by the triad of precocious puberty (PP), fibrous dysplasia, and café au lait spots. Previous treatments investigated for PP have included aromatase inhibitors and the estrogen receptor modulator, tamoxifen. Although some agents have been partially effective, the optimal pharmacologic treatment of PP in girls with M...

Long-term outcomes of letrozole treatment for precocious puberty in girls with McCune-Albright syndrome.

OBJECTIVE McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) is a rare disorder with a broad spectrum including precocious puberty (PP) due to recurrent estrogen-secreting ovarian cysts. This study evaluates the long-term safety and efficacy of letrozole treatment in large cohort of girls with MAS-associated PP. DESIGN Retrospective cohort analysis. METHODS Clinical data, including history and physical examina...

McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) is classically defined by the clinical triad of fibrous dysplasia of bone (FD), café-au-lait skin spots, and precocious puberty (PP). It is a rare disease with estimated prevalence between 1/100,000 and 1/1,000,000.
