title: [Characteristics of sexual maturation of girls born in the state of hypotrophy].
abstract: A total of 156 adolescent and young girls, delivered at term with birth weights below 3000 g were examined. In puberty, they showed a considerable incidence of skeletal disproportions, a retardation in the increment of pelvic dimensions, disturbed menarche, disrupted sequence and degree of development of secondary sexual characters. Continuity of medical surveillance of children, delivered with low birth weights, by a pediatrician and a pediatric gynecologist is essential in order to prevent reproductive disorders.
