We present a case of Kallmann syndrome in a 33-years-old man. He was unable to sense smell since birth. He showed scale-out results on T&T olfactogram. He displayed non-development of secondary sexual characteristics for the past 20 years. On urological examination, he had sparse pubic hair, right undescended testis, and small penis. Blood investigations showed low basal levels of serum testosterone, follicle stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) detected absence of the olfactory bulbs, tracts, and hypoplasia of the olfactory sulci. An apparently normal appearing pituitary gland was detected. MRI findings were useful for diagnosing and confirming Kallmann syndrome.
