Klinefelter syndrome (KS) is a chromosomal abnormality characterised by a 47, XXY karyotype associated with hypogonadism and infertility. We present a case of a 20-year-old patient who applied to our clinic because of growth deficiency and was concurrently diagnosed with Klinefelter syndrome and celiac disease.
