Background: The ‘External Masculinization Score’ (EMS) is an objective method of scoring undervirilized genitalia in infants but may require further adaptation to capture the appearance of the genitalia more comprehensively across the phenotypic spectrum.Objective: To develop and validate a non-binary, standardized score that describes the range of appearance of external genitalia.Method: The external genitalia score (EGS...

Bone Maturation as a Predictive Factor of Catch-up Growth During the First Year of Life in Born Small for Gestational Age Infants: A Prospective Study

Pepe Giorgia , Calafiore Mariarosa , Valenzise Mariella , Morabito Letteria , De Luca Filippo , Wasniewska Malgorzata

Background: About 85–90% of children born small for gestational age (SGA) experience a catch-up growth that occurs mostly during the first year of life and results in a full stature recovery by the age of 2. The remaining 10–15% do not undergo compensatory growth, achieving - if untreated - an adult height approximately 20 cm below their peers.Objective: The aim of this prospective one-center study was to investigate the relation between bone m...

Long term Follow-up of a Child Treated with CyberKnife Radiosurgery for ACTH-secreting Pituitary Adenoma after Bilateral Adrenalectomy

Aversa Tommaso , Wasniewska Malgorzata , Francesca Messina Maria , Calafiore Mariarosa , De Luca Filippo

Background: First line treatment for an ACTH-secreting pituitary adenoma is transsphenoidal resection (TSR) of the tumor. Treatment options for patients with recurrent or persistent disease after surgery include another TSR, medical management, bilateral adrenalectomy, radiosurgery, or a combination of these. Radiosurgery represents a potentially curative treatment option for patients with recurrent or persistent disease.Case presentation: A boy was diag...

Different faces of minipuberty in preterm twin girls

Pepe Giorgia , Calafiore Mariarosa , Velletri Maria Rosa , Mondello Isabella , Pomi Alessandra Li , Wasniewska Malgorzata ,

Background: minipuberty (MP) consists in a postnatal activation of hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis, which occurs physiologically in both sexes during the first months of life. FSH and LH peak between 1 and 3 months, stimulating sex hormones secretion. In preterm infants, MP might lead to a stronger and more protracted hormonal stimulation, even if specific literature data are limited and not univocal. Immaturity of the hypothalamic feedback has been ...

Minipuberty in born small for gestational age infants: a case control prospective pilot study

Pepe Giorgia , Calafiore Mariarosa , Velletri Maria Rosa , Corica Domenico , Aversa Tommaso , Mondello Isabella , Alibrandi Angela , Wasniewska Malgorzata ,

Objective: Minipuberty (MP) is still not well defined in small for gestational age (SGA) infants, due to controversial literature data. The present study aims to evaluate MP in SGA infants, both preterm and full-term, compared with those born adequate for gestational age (AGA), during the first year of life.Design: Case-Control, Prospective Study.Methods: The study population included 33 SGA newbor...
