title: [Cases of endocrinological psychiatry. Hypothalamic primary amenorrhea with paraphrenia].
abstract: A case of association between hypothalamic primary amenorrhea, obesity and paraphrenia is presented in a 53 old woman. Neurological investigations, showing a diencenphalic involvement possibly on a malformative basis, lead to the hypothesis of a common pathogenesis for both endocrinological and psychiatric features of the syndrome.
