Abstract/OtherAbstract:
We report a male with cerebellar ataxia, hypogonadism and chorioretinopathy. The age of onset was 12. The parents were first cousins. Endocrinologic studies demonstrated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism due to pituitary dysfunction. The ocular disorder involved the choriocapillaris and the retina. The association may represent a separate syndrome, seldom recognized in the past.
