An 18-year-old male patient had presented with diffuse hyperpigmentation after birth and with adrenal insufficiency syndrome since childhood. After puberty, no secondary sexual signs developed. Laboratory examination showed an extremely high concentration of serum triglycerides (9.14 mmol/L) and plasma adrenocorticotropic hormone (>275 pmol/L), however, a low concentration of plasma free cortisone (<25.1-67.6 nmol/L). Abdomen computed tomography detected atrophy of both adrenals glands.
