Brief Summary: This study significantly advances our understanding of the genetic underpinnings of congenital hypopituitarism (CH) by utilizing whole exome sequencing (WES) in a large cohort of patients from Argentina.CH is a complex and highly heterogeneous disorder that is associated with highly variable clinical phenotypes that range in severity (1). The aetiology of CH may extend beyond monogenic causes, involving oligogenic, polygenic, or multifacto...
