Precocious Puberty in Hypothyroidism: Mini-Review of Van Wyk-Grumbach Syndrome.

Severe hypothyroidism can affect a variety of organs and can develop atypical manifestations. Peripheral precocious puberty may be secondary to other endocrinological diseases, which must be taken into account in the differential diagnosis in order to avoid unnecessary additional tests. Van Wyk-Grumbach syndrome is an infrequent manifestation characterized by severe hypothyroidism and incomplete precocious puberty.
