Background: Patients with CHH and KS share eunuchoid body proportions of skeleton compared to normal male subjects. On the contrary, testosterone levels at puberty are lower in CHH patients compared to KS patients.Aim: To compare anthropometric measurements of adult male CHH vs KS patients.Methods: A prospective, cross-sectional, observational study was conducted. CHH patients were subdivided into 2 subgroups according to the timin...

Introduction: Despite normal thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) serum levels, 10% of hypothyroid patients treated with LT4 complain of hypothyroidism symptoms, likely linked to decreased availability of free triiodothyronine (fT3). Thus, combined levothyroxine/liothyronine (LT4/lT3) therapy was suggested to ensure a more physiological balance in peripheral tissues.Aim: To evaluate the effectiveness of combined LT4/lT3 therapy in thyroidectomized subjects,...
