Article Description

OMIM 273750 (3-M) syndrome is a rare cause of severe short stature with variable dysmorphic features caused by pathogenic variants in several genes including cullin7 gene (). Hypogonadism and hypospadias have been described in only a few males. We report a patient with 7 pathogenic variant who had bifid scrotum and perineal hypospadias at birth. He entered puberty spontaneously at age 12 years and appropriately completed pubertal development by 15 years. Subsequently, a regression of testicular volumes, increased gonadotropin levels, and reduced (although normal) testosterone levels were observed. This case highlights the importance of careful pubertal monitoring as pubertal dysfunction may be associated with 3-M syndrome.
