Growth Hormone Treatment to Final Height in Turner Syndrome: Systematic Review

Turner syndrome (TS) is the most common sex chromosomal abnormality found in female subjects. It is a result of a partial or complete loss of one of the X chromosomes. Short stature is a hallmark of TS. Attainment of adult height (AH) within the normal range for height within the general female population represents the usual long-term goal of growth hormone (GH) treatment. The aim of this systematic review was to understand the efficacy of GH therapy on AH of patients with TS.
