Question
A child (three years old) has been diagnosed with precocious puberty, and medication and dietary control have been ineffective. The hospital has suggested surgical treatment. Can the surgery completely cure the condition? What are the risks involved? Which hospitals are better suited for this type of surgery? What are the approximate costs?
Answer
For precocious puberty caused by tumors, early surgery can remove the tumor while preserving some excretion function, but it does come with certain risks. It is recommended to choose a hospital with strong technical capabilities for the surgery, as medication cannot combat endocrine disorders. Consider local hospitals with good reputations for surgery. Medication cannot combat endocrine disorders.
