Utility gastrotomy in Allgrove syndrome?
I have met a french girl patient.
She is 20. Her hormonal problems modify her weight : between 32 and 50kg.
The problem comes from surenal glands and from the thyroid.
She has a sort of "tube" near stomach.
In case of lack of food, she possesses a pocket near the stomach.
Without these system she can died.
