[Endocrine disorders in adolescents and young adults].
Evaluation of 158 patients younger than 25 years-of-age who had been hospitalized in a specialized adult endocrine department during an 11 year-period, brought to light specific endocrine problems connected both to pediatrics and internal medicine. There is need for close collaboration between pediatricians, as experts on disturbances in growth and pubertal development, and internists, with experience of diagnosing rare endocrinological disorders. Such collaboration might also improve the follow-up of young patients into adulthood.
