Nonclassical 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency [PDF]
AbstractContext: Nonclassical congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) owing to steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency (NC21OHD) is the most frequent of all autosomal recessive genetic diseases, occurring in one in 100 persons in the heterogeneous New York City population. NC21OHD occurs with increased frequency in certain ethnic groups, such as Ashkenazi Jews,

Molecular diagnosis of patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency
Background Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is an autosomal recessive group of diseases. 21-Hydroxylase deficiency (21OHD) accounts for between 95 and 99% of all CAH cases. Objectives To characterize the genotype of patients clinically diagnosed with

Two Adults with Adrenal Myelolipoma and 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency
We present incidentally discovered adrenal myelolipomas in two adult males with untreated congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). The patients had simple virilizing form of CAH due to mutations in the CYP21 gene coding for 21-hydroxylase; one was ...

Papulocistic lesions of the face: the tip of the iceberg
Acne is a manifestation of hormonal overstimulation of the pilosebaceous units of genetically susceptible individuals and may manifest in the form of comedonic, papulopustular or nodular lesions. It can present as an isolated disease or in the context of
