Observation:

  • This study examined 43 female patients aged 17-46 with severe intellectual disability.
  • Four patients were diagnosed with primary hypogonadism.

Findings:

  • One patient with primary hypogonadism presented with Richards Rundle syndrome at age 20.
  • This case displayed absent secondary sex characteristics, hypoplastic genitals, deafness, ataxia, muscle wasting, and reduced reflexes.

Implications:

  • Hypogonadism and hypogenitalism warrant investigation for associated mental and neurological disorders.
  • Genetic counseling is recommended for siblings of affected individuals.
