Guazzarotti Laura , Mauri Silvia , Occhipinti Federica , Petruzzi Mariangela , Sonnino Micol , Tenconi Andrea Angela , Pogliani Laura , Zuccotti Gian Vincenzo

Background: Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS) is a rare autosomal-dominant disorder frequently caused by the serine-threonine-kinase-11(STK11) gene mutation and characterized by hamartomatous polyps throughout the gastrointestinal tract, mucocutaneous hyperpigmentation and predisposition to several malignancies. Rarely, PJS may be associated to an oestrogen producing large cell calcifying Sertoli cell tumour that may result in gynecomastia and increased growth velocity (GV).<p ...

Reynaert Nele , de Zegher Francis , Devriendt Koenraad , Francois Inge , Beckers Dominique , Casteels Kristina

Background: CHARGE syndrome is a variable entity. Clinical diagnosis is based on the Blake-Verloes criteria and can be confirmed by identifying a mutation in CHD7. Hypoplasia of the genitalia is a common feature and is most often attributable to hypogonadotropic hypogonadism which is described in 81% of the males and 93% of the female patients. Other genital anomalies are rare. Combined agenesis of the uterus and ovaries is so far only reported in one patient with sus...

Background: Small gestational age (SGA) is defined by a small size and/or a birth weight <−2 DS/standards for the term of pregnancy. Most of these children catch up to their size in the first 2 years of life. Only 10% of them will stay with a size of <−2 DS. These children may benefit from treatment with GH, which improves their stature prognosis.Objective and hypotheses: Study the final height of children with IUGR have reached adult...

Anti-Müllerian Hormone is a Useful Marker of Gonadotoxicity in Girls Treated for Cancer: A Prospective Study

Miyoshi Yoko , Yasuda Kie , Miyamura Takako , Miyashita Emiko , Hashii Yoshiko , Ozono Keiichi

Background: Gonadal dysfunction is one of the major endocrinological late effects among cancer survivors. Chemotherapeutic agents and radiation are so gonadotoxic that ovarian reserve diminishes.
