Abstract

Klinefelter, Reifenstein and Albright (13) in 1942 collected and described nine cases of a new clinical syndrome, later given the eponym Klinefelter's Syndrome, which appeared at puberty in males and was characterized by gynaecomastia, hypogonadism, aspermatogenesis, increased follicle-stimulating hormone (F.S.H.) and normal or low 17-ketosteroid urinary excretion.
