| Core Tip |
Kallmann syndrome (KS), also known as hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH) or olfactory-gonadal dysplasia, is a genetic condition in which the primary symptom is a failure to start puberty or a failure to fully complete it. It occurs in both males and females and has the additional symptoms of hypogonadism and almost invariably infertility. The condition has a low prevalence. The prevalence is estimated to be 1 in 4,000 for male HH cases overall and 1:50,000 for KS. It is three to five times more common in males than females. Whether this is a true sex imbalance or a reflection on how difficult KS/HH is to diagnose correctly in males versus females has yet to be fully established. Our Department of Endocrinology admitted a case of adolescent dysplasia in 2017. The patient presented with no development of secondary sex characteristics, such as the growth of facial hair and deepening of the voice, and an unusually small penis (micropenis). These presentations indicate adolescent dysplasia. A mutation in the KAL-1 gene was detected by a family pedigree survey and gene molecular screening analysis. |
