Abstract

Central precocious puberty (CPP) in girls is most commonly idiopathic. Here, we present a case of a 5-year 3-month-old child who presented with CPP with a stalk lipoma on magnetic resonance imaging. On examination, the sexual maturity rating was A1P1B (Rt B1, Lt B2), respectively. The hormonal evaluation revealed pubertal gonadotropin and E2 levels, respectively, with pubertal ultrasound (USG) parameters. She was started on gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist therapy and is on regular follow-up. This case highlights stalk lipoma as a cause of CPP.
