Abstract
We studied two male siblings with the hypertelorism-hypospadias syndrome, and investigated the role of the hypothalamic-hypophyseal-gonadal axis in the pathogenesis of the hypospadias. The absence of evident endocrine abnormalities led us to suppose that hypospadias in this syndrome is mainly related to genetic factors. © 1989, Walter de Gruyter.
