“…The most common reason for consultation among women was amenorrhea, observed in 67 patients; amenorrhea represents the most frequent manifestation of female hypogonadism [12]. Within the male population, the symptoms were associated in an intricate manner, however infertility was the most frequent reason for consultation as it was noted in 20 patients, followed by micropenis in 12 patients; this preponderance was justified by the fact that the majority of our patients were in a period of genital activity with serious social and family consequences, a considerable psychological impact in the face of the loss of masculine identity pushing these patients to consult in the face of infertility and the micropenis [13] [14].…”

“…Chez la fille, de même que notre deuxième cas rapporté, le KS est révélé par une aménorrhée primaire dans plus de 90% des cas; le développement mammaire est très variable, souvent présent et parfois presque normal [6]; concernant la pilosité pubienne, elle peut être absente, clairsemée ou même normale. Sous une forme atténuée, l'hypogonadisme peut être limité à une anovulation chronique, alors que la sécrétion d'œstradiol est adéquate pour le développement de l'endomètre laissant apparaitre une seule menstruation (aménorrhée primo-ordinaire) ou une oligoménorrhée chronique ou un test au progestatif positif [7]. Dans tous les cas, il faudra rechercher des signes cliniques associés fortement évocateurs du syndrome de Kallmann comme une anosmie, des syncinésies (mouvements en miroir), anomalie de l'attention visuelle, anomalie de la motricité oculaire, ptosis, syndrome cérébelleux, surdité, pieds creux, palais creux, fente labiale et/ou palatine, agénésie dentaire agénésie rénale.…”
