Clinical evaluation included measurements of height, weight, body mass index (BMI), Tanner staging and bone age assessment.

One girl began puberty before renal transplantation. Peak luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicular stimulating hormone (FSH) levels were 6.5, 20.2, 7.83, 19.1, 9 and 2.2 mIU\/mL and 13, 8.3, 8.01, 7.5, 8.1 and 7.7 mIU\/mL, respectively.
