Growth and hypothalamic-pituitary function have been studied in children in long-term remission from acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL). All 14 children are growing and developing normally; in the 8 children in whom the hypothalamic pituitary axis was investigated endocrine function is normal. Continuing long-term review of these children is essential, but hypothalamic-pituitary investigation is required only when there is a decrease in growth velocity or delay in the onset of puberty.
对急性淋巴细胞白血病(ALL)长期缓解期儿童的生长发育及下丘脑 - 垂体功能进行了研究。所有14名儿童生长发育正常;在接受下丘脑 - 垂体轴检查的8名儿童中,内分泌功能正常。对这些儿童进行持续的长期随访至关重要,但仅在生长速度下降或青春期开始延迟时才需要进行下丘脑 - 垂体检查。
