AU - Ross, Judith AU - Ostrow, Vlady PY - 2020 DA - 2020/10/06 TI - Height outcomes in children with growth hormone deficiency and idiopathic short stature treated concomitantly with growth hormone and aromatase inhibitor therapy: data from the ANSWER program JO - International Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology SP - 19 VL - 2020 IS - 1 AB - Treatment of children with growth hormone deficiency (GHD) or idiopathic short stature (ISS) using GH is only effective for bone growth prior to epiphyseal fusion. Aromatase inhibitor therapy (AIT) blocks estrogen production, thereby delaying epiphyseal fusion. The current study analyzed baseline characteristics and longitudinal data of male patients with GHD or ISS who were treated with GH and concomitant AIT.
