Kallmann syndrome (KS) is a phenotypically and genetically heterogeneous disorder featured by hypogonadotropic hypogonadism and congenital hyposmia or anosmia, accompanined with renal dysplasia, hearing loss, and craniofacial defects sometimes. More than 20 genes have been identified causing KS either alone or in combination.
