Pituitary and gonadal functions in patients with chordee without hypospadias

Pituitary and gonadal functions in 16 prepubertal boys with chordee without hypospadias by stimulation of gonadotropin releasing hormone or human chorionic gonadotropin were compared to those of age-matched normal boys. The patients with chordee without hypospadias had poor follicular stimulating hormone response but pituitary luteinizing hormone reserve function was normal.
