What is the pathophysiology of central precocious puberty (CPP)?

"Central precocious puberty (CPP) was reported in some patients with suprasellar arachnoid cysts (SAC), and SCFE ( slipped capital femoral epiphysis) occurs in patients with CPP because of rapid growth and changes of growth hormone secretion." If no cause can be identified, it is considered idiopathic or constitutional.

What is central precocious puberty and how is it treated?

Central precocious puberty can be treated by suppressing the pituitary hormones that induce sex steroid production. The opposite condition is delayed puberty. The term is used with several slightly different meanings that are usually apparent from the context.

E30. 8 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM E30. 8 became effective on October 1, 2021.

What is premature Thelarche?

Thelarche means "the beginning of breast development." Therefore, if a girl begins to show breast enlargement at an early age (anywhere from birth to six years), it is called "premature thelarche."

What is central precocious puberty?

Central precocious puberty (CPP) refers to premature activation of the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal (HPG) axis, resulting in early development of secondary sexual characteristics. Although the exact threshold defining “normal” pubertal timing has been disputed, commonly used cutoffs to define CPP are 8 years of age for females (7.5 years for Hispanics and African Americans) and 9 years of age for males [1]. The earliest clinical manifestation of central puberty in girls is usually breast development (thelarche), followed by pubic hair (pub-arche). The pubertal growth spurt typically occurs during Tanner stage II–III, with the first menstrual period, known as menarche, usually occurring at Tanner stage IV. In boys, the initial clinical sign of central puberty is testicular enlargement and the pubertal growth spurt happens later than in girls [2, 3].

What is the biochemical change that occurs during puberty?

Although the precise mechanisms triggering the onset of puberty are unclear, the earliest known biochemical change during puberty is increased production of kisspeptin in the hypothalamus. While kisspeptin itself has several proposed stimulatory and inhibitory signals, which have not yet been clearly elucidated, it has been shown that increased kisspeptin production results in increased gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) release. Thus, a rise in kisspeptin is widely acknowledged as the seminal event that initiates HPG axis activation during puberty [2]. Inhibition of the GnRH pulse generator decreases first during sleep, resulting in an increase of nighttime luteinizing hormone (LH) pulse amplitude during early and mid-puberty. As puberty progresses, LH pulse amplitude increases during daytime hours as well, and estrogen and testosterone levels rise accordingly.

What is the cause of CPP?

Specific genetic causes of CPP have been described relatively recently. A substitution mutation in the G-protein coupled kisspeptin receptor gene KISS1R(formerly known as GPR54) was found in a patient with CPP and was associated with delayed degradation of the ligand–receptor complex within the cell membrane. This was further linked to an extended period of downstream signaling, postulated to result in increased amplitude of GnRH pulsatility [9]. An additional KISS1Rpolymorphism in the promoter region has been described in Chinese girls with CPP, though a detailed knowledge of whether or how this variant impacts the expression or function of the gene is as yet unknown [10].

Is pelvic ultrasound good for CPP?

Pelvic ultrasound has been found to be a useful adjunct to support the diagnosis of CPP over other forms of puberty in girls, especially in equivocal situations . Uterine and ovarian dimensions have a stronger association with bone age than with chronological age and are correlated with CPP up to the age of 8 years [21]. While proposed cutoffs for uterine and ovarian volumes exist, these have been somewhat variable, and other studies have suggested a considerable overlap between patients with and without CPP, making reliable parameters difficult to establish. For those who present for evaluation after the age of 8 years, ultrasound parameters become even more difficult to interpret, as there is an even greater overlap in uterine and ovarian dimensions between prepubertal and early pubertal girls [21–24]. The finding of small ovarian follicles on a pelvic ultrasound is normal even in prepubertal girls [25]. Clinicians should further keep in mind that ultrasound results may be technician dependent.

What is the ICd code for precocious puberty?

The ICD code E301 is used to code Precocious puberty. In medicine, precocious puberty is puberty occurring at an unusually early age. In most cases, the process is normal in every aspect except the unusually early age, and simply represents a variation of normal development. In a minority of children, the early development is triggered by ...

What causes early puberty?

In a minority of children, the early development is triggered by a disease such as a tumor or injury of the brain. Even when there is no disease, unusually early puberty can have adverse effects on social behavior and psychological development, can reduce adult height potential, and may shift some lifelong health risks.
