| Description | We have found significant bone age retardation in comparison with calendar age in girls, and we can not eliminate correlation between this retardation and long-term bone metabolic changes after steroid therapy. We have not found similar changes of bone age retardation in boys as in girls. We have not found some significant disorders in body height development in the treated children. The side effects of the therapy can manifest after many years, therefore, there is a need for physical development monitoring during a long-term period. |
