11 year old diagnosed with GHD and Rathke's cyst

11 year old diagnosed with GHD and Rathke's cyst

My 11 yr old daughter was diagnosed with having GHD in 10/10. Her peak value on clonidine was 6.2 and her peak value on arginine was 4.3. She had a MRI completed and a Rathke's clef cyst and pars intermedia cyst were found during the screening. Now, we are looking at seeing a neurologist before she will be cleared for GH therapy. What is the protocol in treating these type of cysts? Do they need to be removed? Is the GHD a direct result of this type of cyst?
