Thus, there were 20 patients with Kallmann syndrome (KS) and the rest 20 were normosmic IHH (nIHH). Of 40 patients with IHH, MRI finding was suggestive of normal (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">n<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 16), hypoplastic (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">n<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 12), and aplastic (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">n<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 12) olfactory apparatus.
