Management issues of congenital adrenal hyperplasia during the transition from pediatric to adult care [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Pediatrics, 2017
Steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency is the most prevalent form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), accounting for approximately 95% of cases. With the advent of newborn screening and hormone replacement therapy, most children with CAH survive into ...

Molecular Diagnosis of Steroid 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency: A Practical Approach

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Adrenal insufficiency in paediatric patients is mostly due to congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), a severe monogenic disease caused by steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD, encoded by the CYP21A2 gene) in 95% of cases.

21-hydroxylase deficiency and fertility

open access: yesMedical alphabet, 2020
21-hydroxylase deficiency is the most common genetically determined adrenal steroidogenesis defect. One of the consequences of the disease developing as a result of this defect, congenital dysfunction of the adrenal cortex (CDAC), is a decrease in fertility in the form of infertility or early pregnancy loss.

Novel deletion alleles carrying CYP21A1P/A2 chimeric genes in Brazilian patients with 21-hydroxylase deficiency

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2010
Background Congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency is caused by deletions, large gene conversions or mutations in CYP21A2 gene. The human gene is located at 6p21.3 within a locus containing the genes for putative serine/threonine ...
