| Abstract: | The normal course of precocious puberty is progredient resulting eventually in full sexual maturation. In few cases a transient form of the disease has been recorded, characterized by a temporary appearance of signs of sexual maturation. We report on a female patient with an undulating course of the disorder: after precocious initiation of puberty, a temporary interruption and subsequent resumption of sexual maturation occurred. Presently, the patient is successfully treated with an LHRH-analogon. Within the framework of this case problems in diagnosis and treatment of precocious puberty are being discussed. |
