Pituitary imaging findings in pediatric patients with idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism
Objective. Idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism in children is a disease leading to a puberty absence. Some hypothalamic and pituitary defects cause hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. Pituitary magnetic resonance imaging is routinely performed in these patients. In our study, we provide an informati...

| Summary: | Objective. Idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism in children is a disease leading to a puberty absence. Some hypothalamic and pituitary defects cause hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. Pituitary magnetic resonance imaging is routinely performed in these patients. In our study, we provide an information about pituitary pathologies associated with an idiopathic hypogonado-tropic hypogonadism in childhood. |
