Fertility and body composition after laparoscopic bilateral adrenalectomy in a 30-year-old female with congenital adrenal hyperplasia [PDF]
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency is caused by an inborn defect in the 21-hydroxylase gene (CYP21), leading to virilization of female patients and causing ambiguous genitals in the majority of ...

Non-Classic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia in Childhood: A Review
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a heterogeneous group of autosomal recessive disorders due to defects in adrenal steroid biosynthesis. In about 90% of patients, CAH is caused by pathogenetic variants in CYP21A2 gene, impairing the function of 21 ...

Monitoring treatment in pediatric patients with 21-hydroxylase deficiency
21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD) is the most common form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia. In most developed countries, newborn screening enables diagnosis of 21-OHD in asymptomatic patients during the neonatal period.
