sentral pubertas precox

"Sentral pubertas precox" er det kliniske navnet. "Pubertas precox" kan også kalles, som Per foreslo, "for tidlig pubertet". "Central" betyr at sykdommen skyldes tumor i sentralnervesystemet.

Ref 1: "Early puberty is usually thought of as being either central precocious puberty, which can be from a tumor (more commonly in boys) of the central nervous system, including hypothalamic hamartomas, infections, head trauma, hydrocephalus, or hypothyroidism, or peripheral precocious puberty, usually secondary to McCune Albright syndrome, ovarian cysts and tumors or testicular tumors."

Ref 2: "Sentral pubertas precox (CPP): Relativ sjelden tilstand (1:5 000 – 1:10 000) med stor overhyppighet hos jenter (kjønnsfordeling jenter:gutter omtrent 1:10). (...) Organiske årsaker innebærer bestråling av CNS, gjennomgått CNS-infeksjon, hydrocefalus og tumores i og nært hypofyse/hypothalamus."
