Since the late thirties a syndrome has been progressively completing its description. It consists essentially in juvenile diabetes mellitus, diabetes insipidus, neurosensory hearing loss and optic atrophy. Neurosensory hearing loss, neurogenic bladder, autonomic dysfunction and hyperalanineuria have been added. The syndrome is generally familial.Electrophysiologic and psychophysiological retinal studies have been done in these cases. Profound electrophysiological disturbance has been described. Cases under actual evaluation are presented. Physiopathologic processes remain a problem. The nature of the retinal affection is also open for discussion.
