Informations about the disease

Clinical Comment

Clinically heterogeneous disorder with classical triad of optic nerve hypoplasia, pituitary hormone abnormalities, midline brain defects. Diagnosis is made with 2 or more features of the triad. 30% of patients have complete manifestations, 62% display hypopituitarism, 60% have an absent septum pellucidum. The disorder is equally prevalent in both sexes, more common in infants born to younger mothers. Often no mutation(s) detected.
