A case of late-onset allgrove syndrome presenting with predominant autonomic dysfunction.
[triple a syndrome]
Allgrove
Syndrome
or
triple
A
syndrome
is
a
rare
familial
multisystem
disorder
characterized
by
achalasia
,
alacrima
and
adrenal
insufficiency
.
The
objective
was
to
describe
a
case
of
4
A
syndrome
where
autonomic
dysfunction
was
the
presenting
feature
.
A
22
-
year

male
presented
with
erectile

and
loss
of
spontaneous
morning

for
six
months
.
He
was
having
nocturnal
diarrhea
and
recurrent
postural

.
He
was

have
hyperpigmentation
at
pressure
points
,
postural

and
other
features
of
autonomic

.
Laboratory
investigations
and
imaging
studies
revealed
hypoadrenalism
,
achalasia
,
alacrima
and
peripheral
neuropathy
.
Autonomic
neuropathy
-related
features
persisted
even
after
correction
of
hypoadrenalism
.
Based
on
clinical
features
and
investigation
he
was
diagnosed
as
a
case
of
4
