Öğe 17? Hydroxylase/17,20 lyase deficiency: clinical features and genetic insights from a large Turkey cohort(Springer, 2024) Siklar, Zeynep; Camtosun, Emine; Bolu, Semih; Yildiz, Melek; Akinci, Aysehan; Bas, Firdevs; Dundar, IsmailPurpose17 alpha Hydroxylase/17,20 lyase deficiency (17OHD) is a rare form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, typically diagnosed in late adolescence with symptoms of pubertal delay and hypertension. This study aimed to determine the clinical and laboratory characteristics of 17OHD cases and gather data on disease management.MethodsData from 97 nationwide cases were analyzed using the CEDD-NET web system. Diagnostic, follow-up findings, and final heights of patients were evaluated.ResultsMean age at admission was 13.54 +/- 4.71 years, with delayed puberty as the most common complaint. Hypertension was detected in 65% at presentation; hypokalemia was present in 34%. Genetic analysis revealed Exon 1-6 homozygous deletion as the most frequent mutation, identified in 42 cases. Hydrocortisone replacement was universal; pubertal replacement was administered to 66 cases. Antihypertensive treatment was required in 57 (90%) patients. Thirty-seven cases reached final height, with an average SD of 0.015 in 46,XX and -1.43 in 46,XY. Thelarche and pubarche did not develop properly in some cases despite estradiol treatment.ConclusionThis study represents the largest cohort of pediatric cases of 17-hydroxylase deficiency (17OHD) documented in the literature. Hypertension and hypokalemia can serve as guiding indicators for early diagnosis.The final height is typically considered to be normal. The relationship between genotype and phenotype remains elusive. The initial genetic test for exon 1-6 deletions may be MLPA in our region.Öğe Clinical and Laboratory Characteristics of Hyperprolactinemia in Children and Adolescents: National Survey(Galenos Yayincilik, 2019) Eren, Erdal; Ergur, Ayca Torel; Isguven, Sukriye Pinar; Bitkin, Eda Celebi; Berberoglu, Merih; Siklar, Zeynep; Bas, FirdevsObjective: We aimed to report the characteristics at admission, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of cases of pediatric hyperprolactinemia in a large multicenter study. Methods: We reviewed the records of 233 hyperprolactinemic patients, under 18 years of age, who were followed by different centers. The patients were divided as having microadenomas, macroadenomas, drug-induced hyperprolactinemia and idiopathic hyperprolactinemia. Complaints of the patients, their mode of treatment (medication and/or surgery) and outcomes were evaluated in detail. Results: The mean age of the patients with hyperprolactinemia was 14.5 years, and 88.4% were females. In terms of etiology, microadenomas were observed in 32.6 %, macroadenomas in 27 %, idiopathic hyperprolactinemia in 22.7% and drug-induced hyperprolactinemia in 6.4 %. Other causes of hyperprolactinemia were defined in 11.3%. Common complaints in females (n = 206) were sorted into menstrual irregularities, headaches, galactorrhea, primary or secondary amenorrhea and weight gain, whereas headache, gynecomastia, short stature and blurred vision were common in males (n = 27). Median prolactin levels were 93.15 ng/mL, 241.8 ng/ml, 74.5 ng/mL, 93.2 ng/mL, and 69 ng/mL for microadenomas, macroadenomas, idiopathic hyperprolactinemia, drug-induced hyperprolactinemia, and other causes of hyperprolactinemia, respectively. Of 172 patients with hyperprolactinemia, 77.3 % were treated with cabergoline and 13.4 % with bromocriptine. 20.1 % of the patients with pituitary adenomas underwent pituitary surgery. Conclusion: We present the largest cohort of children and adolescents with hyperprolactinemia in the literature to date. Hyperprolactinemia is more common in females and cabergoline is highly effective and practical to use in adolescents, due to its biweekly dosing. Indications for surgery in pediatric cases need to be revised.Öğe CLINICAL AND LABORATORY CHARACTERISTICS OF HYPERPROLACTINEMIC CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS: NATIONAL SURVEY(Karger, 2017) Eren, Erdal; Ergur, Ayca Torel; Isguven, Sukriye Pinar; Bitkin, Eda Celebi; Berberoglu, Merih; Siklar, Zeynep; Genens, Mikayir[Abstract Not Available]
