Turner syndrome is a common sex chromosome anomaly. Human growth hormone (hGH) is effective for treating short stature, which is a major characteristic of the disease. In this report, we analyzed the results of low-dose GH treatment for short stature in 212 Turner syndrome patients with growth hormone deficiency. These patients were enrolled in KIGS Japan. After 5 years of treatment, change in height was more than the mean growth curve in many patients, and the standard deviation (SD) for stature improved by +1.22 SDS. As the treatment progressed, the weight-for-height index (WHI) decreased in patients aged 8.1 years or older but not more than 14.8 years at the commencement of the treatment.
