Adolescent Endocrinology

By R. Stanhope and Stanhope

The needs of children with endocrine disorders are very different from those of adults and such patients have long been treated by specialist paediatric endocrinologists. At some point, the child reaches puberty and is likely to be passed on to the care of an adult endocrinologist. However, during adolescence, there are particular issues which affect both paediatric and adult care and it is essential that opinion and treatment are synchronous between the two groups of specialists.
