Abstract
Pallister-Hall syndrome was first described by Hall et al. in 1980. This syndrome is characterized by hypothalamic hamartoblastoma, hypopituitarism, polydactyly, imperforate anus and other anomalies. We report a case of a male infant with hypothalamic tumor, hypopituitarism, dysplastic metacarpals, micropenis and remarkable hypoglycemia. He has been treated with hydrocortisone, thyroid hormone, NaCl, fludrocortisone acetate and GH. He has grown well on this therapy.
