Etiology | Clinical features | Bone age | Additional evaluation |
Idiopathic
| Early progressive pubertal development, but proceeds in normal sequence. | ↑↑ | Increased ovarian and uterine volumes on ultrasound may help differentiate females with CPP from those with premature thelarche. Contrast-enhanced MRI to rule out CNS abnormality. |
Secondary to CNS lesions (eg, hypothalamic hamartomas, other CNS tumors and lesions, cranial radiation)
| Early progressive pubertal development that usually proceeds in normal sequence, but abnormal tempo or sequence can be seen with CNS lesions. CPP secondary to a CNS lesion occurs more commonly in males and younger children. | ↑↑ | |
Post-early exposure to sex steroids (after treatment for peripheral precocity) | History of treatment of peripheral precocity. Progressive pubertal development with breast development in females and testicular enlargement in males. | ↑↑ | Basal and stimulated LH concentrations are pubertal. |
