“…There are only scarce studies reporting gonadotropin-dependent pubertal disorders after treatment of ACT. These studies are either small series (18, 31, 33, 34) or larger series in which the number of patients that reached pubertal age is not stated; therefore, the proportion of pubertal disorders cannot not be accurately calculated (19, 24). In the present study, this issue was addressed in a straight line.…”

“…Although morbidity (metastasis, recurrence and complications of ACT treatment) and mortality in patients with ACTs are well documented (17, 19, 23, 24), the late effects of early exposure to androgen excess on gonadotropin-dependent puberty and on growth have been scarcely presented in case reports (30, 31, 32, 33), in small series of patients (18, 34) or in studies with other purposes (19, 24).…”

“…Whether or not PPP can induce CPP is controversial. CPP has been reported in children after excision of adrenal adenoma and Leydig cell tumor of the testicle [11, 12]. CPP has also been seen after treatment of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, far more than in the general population [1315].…”

“…A Puberdade Precoce Periférica dá-se pelo desenvolvimento dos caracteres sexuais secundários sem a ativação do eixo HHG, podendo ser estimulada por adrenarca, que se tratam de hormônios secretados pelas glândulas adrenais, e por fatores externos ao organismo, como exposição a hormônios exógenos. Cistos ovarianos e algumas síndromes associadas ao sistema reprodutor também podem realizar essa ativação precoce, como é o caso da mutação do receptor do hormônio luteinizante (LHR), síndrome de McCune-Albright (MAS) e testotoxicose, causadora de pseudo puberdade precoce (ERSOY et al, 2017;MELMED et al, 2015).…”

“…Na PP eles promovem a evolução corporal antes do período ideal para a maturação, acarretando em Idade Óssea (IO) avançada, estatura elevada para a faixa etária e caracteres sexuais já desenvolvidos com idade infantil. A perda de estatura final é consequência do avanço da Velocidade de Crescimento, onde as epífises ósseas são soldadas antes de atingir-se o período de estatura final (CRINÒ et al, 2008;ERSOY et al, 2017;KRSTEVSKA-KONSTANTINOVA et al, 2014).…”
