Abstract
Five patients with the unilateral ovarian streak syndrome are presented. This new syndrome is defined as being characterized by oligomenorrhea progressing into secondary amenorrhea in a normal phenotypic female who has a streaked ovary in one adnexa and a hypoplastic ovary in the other. Their endocrine, cytogenetic and endoscopic data are reviewed. This entity should be considered when evaluating a patient for oligomenorrhea or secondary amenorrhea who presents with hypergonadotropic estrogen deficiency.
