Background: We recently demonstrated that both ritonavir-boosted lopinavir (LPV/r) and lamivudine (3TC, a nucleoside analogue) given to breastfed infants can reduce the risk of post natal HIV transmission (ANRS 12174 trial; Nagot, Lancet 2016). In another setting we previously showed the occurrence of adrenal dysfunction in newborn perinatally exposed to LPV/r leading to acute adrenal insufficiency in premature babies (Simon, JAMA 2011).Objective and hyp...

Background: Early postnatal administration of recombinant human gonadotropins can be an effective way to mimic mini-puberty, and thus increase penile growth in infants with congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (CHH). We report for the first time its efficacy on an infant with partial androgen insensitivity syndrome (PAIS).Objective and hypotheses: To evaluate the benefits of a continuous subcutaneous infusion of recombinant human gonadotropins (CSCI-...
