Impact of gastrointestinal symptoms on quality of life in MEN2.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Hypopituitarism, including severe GH deficiency, is an almost inevitable outcome of craniopharyngioma. However, some GH deficient children with this tumour may grow normally or even have accelerated growth postoperatively. To study this phenomenon we have investigated the endocrine status, including IGF-1 and...
