Allgrove syndrome (triple A) is a rare autosomal recessive disease. The classic triad includes, congenital adrenal insufficiency due to ACTH resistance, achalasia of the cardia and alacrimia. Neurological abnormalities are associated with autonomic neuropathy, sensory and motor defects, deafness, mental retardation, Parkinsonism and dementia. The gene responsible is the ADRACALIN or AAAS encoding a protein called ALADIN. We report a case of a 19 year-old male, assessed when he was 10 years old in our department due to suspected storage disease. Mild mental and language retardation, hypernasal voice, sensory-motor neuropathy with autonomic involvement and signs of spastic paraparesis, alacrimia. gastroesophageal reflux, and achalasia. Molecular studies showed to mutations, the undescribed p.Tyr 19 Cys, and IVS14 +1 G.
