A 7 year old girl with precocious puberty was treated with buserelin, a long acting analogue of gonadotrophin releasing hormone. Spontaneous and stimulated gonadotrophin secretion became prepubertal but returned to pubertal values when buserelin was withdrawn, suggesting that normal sexual maturation should follow cessation of treatment.

We studied the effectiveness of a long-acting GnRH analogue, Triptoreline, for the treatment of central precocity, by suppressing gonadotropin and estradiol secretion in three children with true precocious puberty. One month after single dose intramuscular i...

Long-acting gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogue treatment for central precocious puberty in maternal uniparental disomy chromosome 14.

Uniparental disomy (UPD) is the inheritance of a chromosome pair from one parent and is increasingly recognized as a cause of abnormal phenotypes either due to imprinted genes or, in the case of isodisomy, to homozygosity of recessive alleles. Maternal uniparental disomy for chromosome 14 (matUPD[14]) may cause a characteristic phenotype including precocious puberty. Central precocious puberty ...

Long-acting gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analog treatment for central precocious puberty (CPP) suppresses excessive bone maturation by inhibiting the pituitary-gonadal axis, and usually assures favorable results for growth potential. Recently, we encountered two children with CPP and microcephalus in whom GnRH analog therapy arrested pubertal development, but could not suppress bone ag...
