The present case report concerns a male infant affected by congenital hypopituitarism presenting with neonatal hypoglycaemic attacks, microphallus and bilateral cryptorchidism. A transient cholestasis observed during the 2nd month of life and reversed by hydrocortisone treatment, is to be considered, in Authors' opinion, in the context of the endocrine syndrome, probably as consequence of the adrenal failure.
