Evaluation of the Final Adult Height and Its Determinants in Patients with Growth Hormone Deficiency: A Single-centre Experience from the South-eastern Region of Turkey

Conclusion: GH treatment provided the majority of our patients to achieve a final height compatible with their genetic potential as well as population standards. First Year Delta Height-SDS was found a predictive factor for FAH. Commencement of GH therapy at the prepubertal period was not found associated with a better height outcome.
