Abstract

A case of a 6 year old boy with Kabuki make-up syndrome with central diabetes insipidus and growth hormone neurosecretory dysfunction is reported. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed abnormal findings of the pituitary gland and stalk. Good catch-up growth was obtained by treatment with growth hormone. These findings suggest that hypothalamic-pituitary dysfunction might be involved in Kabuki make-up syndrome.
