LITERATURE SEARCH

A Medline, PubMED and Cochrane Library search of Perault syndrome in the (English) literature, cited between the years 1970 and 2011, was performed to make differential diagnosis of our case. The medical subject headings (MESH) terms and established abbreviations of Perrault syndrome, hypergonadotropic amenorrhea, sensorineural deafness and ataxia were included to collect the relevant citations. In addition, a hand search of pertinent references was performed. Amor et al. [3] reviewed the cases of the rare association of ataxia with hypergonadotropic hypogonadism (AAH) and documented only 15 cases. In this study, additional to the Amor et al. [3] association, the cases with hearing loss were also reviewed. Including the patient in the present report, 14 cases with AAHH have been documented in the literature, sometimes with additional abnormalities (Table 2) [4,5,10-19]. This review aimed to summarize the actual knowledge about the genetic background, pathomechanisms, clinical manifestations, diagnostic approaches and therapeutic strategies concerning AAHH. The purpose of our study was to make physicians familiar with the constellation of clinical findings suggestive of syndromes associated with AAHH.
