Congenital hypopituitarism and renal failure
Congenital hypopituitarism is potentially fatal in the newborn period but treatable if the diagnosis is made early. We report a neonate who presented with hypothermia and severe hypoglycemia. He also had undescended testis and micropenis.

CHOLESTASIS, HYPOGLYCEMIA AND UNUSUAL PHENOTYPE AS THE MANIFESTATIONS OF CONGENITAL HYPOPITUITARISM AS PART OF MONOSOMY 18P- SYNDROME [PDF]
The monosomy 18p-syndrome refers to an extremely rare disorder (1:50,000 live-born infants). Congenital hypopituitarism is one of the manifestations of this syndrome in 13% of cases. The rarity of this pathology causes difficulties in the early detection

Liver Involvement in Congenital Hypopituitarism
Cholestatic jaundice in early infancy is a complex diagnostic challenge. Cholestasis caused by endocrine disease is rare and poorly recognized. The aim of this paper is to report patients with liver dysfunctions resulting from hypopituitarism.Six patients with liver dysfunction diagnosed as hypopituitarism were studied and followed up at Uludag ...

Micropenis: an important early sign of congenital hypopituitarism. [PDF]
Micropenis is an important sign in neonates, since it may be the only clue to the diagnosis of panhypopituitarism, a potentially lethal but eminently treatable condition.

Congenital Hyperinsulinism and Hypopituitarism Attributable to a Mutation in FOXA2 [PDF]
AbstractContextPersistent hypoglycemia in the newborn period most commonly occurs as a result of hyperinsulinism. The phenotype of hypoketotic hypoglycemia can also result from pituitary hormone deficiencies, including growth hormone and adrenocorticotropic hormone deficiency.

Congenital Hypopituitarism due to POU1F1 Gene Mutation
POU1F1 (Pit-1; Gene ID 5449) is an anterior pituitary transcriptional factor, and POU1F1 mutation is known to cause anterior pituitary hypoplasia, growth hormone and prolactin deficiency and various degree of hypothyroidism.
