Presentation
Etiology The aetiology is unknown but the combination of developmental anomalies present in patients with this syndrome is suggestive of an embryological defect in the formation of the neuroectodermal derivatives of cephalic neural crest. [orpha.net]

Musculoskeletal
- Osteopenia
Osteopenia MedGen UID: 148180 • Concept ID: C0747078 • Disease or Syndrome Osteopenia is a term to define bone density that is not normal but also not as low as osteoporosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Affiliated tissues include pituitary and olfactory bulb, and related phenotypes are osteopenia and hearing impairment Disease Ontology : 12 A hypogonadotropic hypogonadism that has material basis in heterozygous mutation in the DUSP6 gene on chromosome [malacards.org]
An abdominal CT and DEXA scan revealed undescended testes and osteopenia, respectively. He was diagnosed as IHH. The patient was provided with supplementary vitamin D, calcium and referrals to endocrinology and urology for orchiopexy. [omicsonline.org]

Workup
Diagnosis [ edit ] Diagnosing KS and other forms of CHH is complicated by the difficulties in distinguishing between a normal constitutional delay of puberty or a case of KS/CHH. [27] [4] [28] The diagnosis is often one of exclusion found during the workup [en.wikipedia.org]

It is only normally discovered when testicular volume increases while on testosterone treatment alone and testosterone levels return to normal when treatment is stopped. [en.wikipedia.org]
Treatments Used in This Disease: Testosterone Replacement Therapy in Men Drugs/Products Used in the Treatment of This Disease: Reandron ( Testosterone undecanoate ) Testogel ( Testosterone ) [myvmc.com]
DUSP6 regulation of p53 phosphorylation via ATM, could be a therapeutic target for combination with treatments involving activation of the ATM/p53 pathway. [esmoopen.bmj.com]
Patients typically require lifelong treatment and special attention to complications such as osteoporosis, infertility and type 2 diabetes mellitus ( 3 ). [edmcasereports.com]
Prognosis
Finally in silico studies from Gene Expression Omnibus and The Cancer Genome Atlas databases indicates that those NSCLC patients with low expression of DUSP6 are those with the worst prognosis. [cancerres.aacrjournals.org]
Prognosis Many forms of hypogonadism are potentially treatable and have a good prognosis. Prevention People should maintain normal body weight and have healthy eating habits to prevent anorexia nervosa. Other causes may not be preventable. [encyclopedia.com]
Early detection of the disease can significantly improve prognosis. [centogene.com]
