概要
- 論文の詳細を見る
A Japanese female who had remitted Langerhans cell histiocytosis with major involvement of the suprasellar region, exhibited sustained linear growth despite apparently impaired growth hormone secretion. This phenomenon, usually referred to as "growth without GH", has been described mainly in patients with craniopharyngioma who have undergone surgery. This is the first detailed description of "growth without GH" accompanied by Langerhans cell histiocytosis, which implies that the pathological nature of the initial brain involvement is not critically important for the development of "growth without GH".
