Abstract

The importance of growth hormone (GH) deficiency in adults became evident 10 to 15 years ago, when the first clinical studies on GH replacement therapy in adults were published. Since then, a number of studies have been reported showing that GH replacement therapy can improve this condition. Adult GH deficiency (GHD) is now recognized as a specific clinical syndrome and the first reports of long-term use of GH (up to 10 years) are now being published. The aim of this paper was to review the accumulated data on the various clinical aspects of adult GHD.
