Abstract

Short stature, ovarian dysgenesis, infertility, and cardiovascular malformations are classic features in Turner syndrome (TS), but the phenotypical spectrum is wide. Through early diagnosis and appropriate treatment, TS patients have a chance to achieve satisfactory adult height and sexual development. The doses of recombinant growth hormone (rGH) used are usually higher than the substitution dose. The safety aspects of this therapy are very important, especially in terms of the cardiovascular system. The presented study aimed to analyze how the rGH therapy may influence the cardiovascular system in TS based on current literature data. We conducted a systematic search for studies related to TS, cardiovascular system, and rGH therapy. The results show that rGH seems to have a positive effect on lipid parameters, reducing the risk of ischemic disease. It is additionally optimized by estradiol therapy. Although rGH may increase insulin resistance, the metabolic derangement is rare, probably due to lower fat content and an increase in lean body mass. Several studies showed that rGH treatment could cause aorta widening or increase the aorta growth rate. IGF-1 can be independently associated with increased aortic diameters. The studies analyzing the impact of GH on blood pressure show conflicting data. The proper cardiovascular imaging before and during rGH treatment and detecting the known risk factors for aorta dissection in every individual is very important. The long-term effects of growth hormone treatment on the heart and arteries are still not available and clearly estimated and have to be monitored in the future.
