Abstract

Researchers at Universite Paris Descartes and other centers in Paris, France performed a retrospective, study of 176 patients (93 boys) aged 6 years (range 0.2-18 years) with hypothalamic-pituitary lesions to determine whether the time to diagnosis could be shortened by analyses of clinical and endocrine presenting symptoms.
