Abstract:
The authors observed an occurrence of pubertas praecox vera by 42 girls from 8 months to 7 years of age. The purpose of the investigations was to elucidate the possible causes of the precocious symptoms and to estimate the effect of the therapy with various LHRH-analogues. Only in 2 children a cranial tumor was found. In the remaining cases an idiopathic precocious puberty was diagnosed. These children received a therapy with LHRH-analogues: Relefact, Busserelin or Decapeptyl. The authors obtained the best results with the slow releasing Decapeptyl.
