Title: [Pseudo precocious puberty in the McCune-Albright syndrome]. Author: Bost M, Andrini P, Jean D. Journal: Pediatrie; 1985; 40(1):55-60. PubMed ID: 4022718. Abstract: McCune Albright Syndrome is characterized by the triad of polyostostic fibrous dysplasia of bones, skin pigmentation (café au lait-spots) and sexual precocity. The authors report a case of a 7 years girl with this syndrome in whom the sexual precocity is due to an autonomous hyperfunctioning of luteinized follicular cysts of ovary. The pathogenic mechanisms of this autonomy are debate.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
