[33-year-old male patient with recurrent syncopes and orthostatic hypotension].

We describe the case of a 33 year old male patient with severe orthostatic hypotension, which was at times even in upright (sitting) position not tolerated, thus leading to complete immobilisation. The diagnostic measurements pointed to the group of primary autonomic degenerative disorders, the so-called "synucleinopathies". The clinical presentation und laboratory values confirmed the diagnosis of "pure autonomic failure". Finally, we describe the differential diagnosis of autonomic dysfunction.
