Kallmann syndrome: a case of an accidental detection based on ureterolithiasis of a solitary kidney
- Urologické oddělení Nemocnice Na Bulovce, Praha
The present paper examines a case of a 76 year old patient with left - side ureterolithiasis and anuria with surprising findings of solitary kidney and genital hypoplasia. A ureteral stent was inserted and later an ureteroscopy was performed including a removal of a stone. Due to typical clinical findings including anosmia, and low testosterone, follicle - stimulating and luteinising hormone levels, a diagnosis of Kallmann syndrome was obtained. Testosterone supplementation was offered to the patient.
Keywords: Kallmann syndrome, hypogonadism, testosterone, renal agenesis, ureterolithiasis, genital hypoplasia, anosmia.
