By March 25, 1992, among the 16,604 patients included in the KIGS database who had been treated with growth hormone (GH) for at least one year, 135 had serious side effects (SE). Among the most frequent SE are relapses of craniopharyngioma (17) and other brain tumors (11). Changes in bone tissue, joints and muscles were more rarely observed. 7 patients had convulsive syndrome. More information is needed to assess the effect of GH therapy on these complications.
