Popis:	Summary A case is reported of marked adrenal and pituitary hypoplasia in a 4-day-old infant. The pituitary showed an absence of acidophils, a decrease in PAS-positive material, and a relative increase in anterior lobe basophils. The adrenals were quite minute. The adrenal lipids histologically appeared normal or increased in amount. The significance of these findings is discussed. The twin sibling died at 2 days of age and the autopsy was performed elsewhere. Marked adrenal hypoplasia was found.
