title: [Isolated metrorrhagia in a prepubertal child caused by functional ovarian cyst].
abstract: The authors report the case of a 10-year-old girl, without any sign of pubertal development, who showed repeated metrorrhagia, related to a functional ovarian cyst. Cyproterone acetate therapy gave only a transient remission of the metrorrhagia. A complete remission was obtained with a 6 months treatment with an LHRH analog.
