    A Single Histrelin Implant Is Effective for 2 Years for Treatment of Central Precocious Puberty
    (Elsevier, 2013) Lewis, Katherine A.; Goldyn, Andrea K.; West, Karen W.; Eugster, Erica A.; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
    We investigated whether a "yearly" histrelin implant would provide pubertal suppression when left in place for 2 years. Equivalent suppression was observed when comparing 12 and 24 months in 33 children with central precocious puberty. A single implant for 2 years reduces cost and number of implant procedures.
