Congenital adrenal hyperplasia [PDF]
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia is a disease in which a gene mutation, which is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, causes a disorder in the synthesis of enzymes that create glucocorticoids, mineralocorticoids, or sex steroids from adrenal ...

Clinical Application of Steroid Profiles and Their Interpretation in Adrenal Disorders [PDF]
Serum and urinary steroid profiles are altered in hormone-producing adrenal adenomas, Cushing’s or Conn’s syndrome, or adrenocortical carcinoma. Definitive diagnosis of inherited congenital adrenal hyperplasia is usually accomplished by measuring the ...

Congenital lipoid adrenal hyperplasia [PDF]
Congenital lipoid adrenal hyperplasia (lipoid CAH) is the most fatal form of CAH, as it disrupts adrenal and gonadal steroidogenesis. Most cases of lipoid CAH are caused by recessive mutations in the gene encoding steroidogenic acute regulatory protein ...

Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia [PDF]
The congenital adrenal hyperplasias comprise a family of autosomal recessive disorders that disrupt adrenal steroidogenesis. The most common form is due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency associated with mutations in the 21-hydroxylase gene, which is located at chromosome 6p21.

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia [PDF]
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia consists of a heterogenous group of inherited disorders due to enzymatic defects in the biosynthetic pathway of cortisol and/or aldosterone. This results in glucocorticoid deficiency, mineralocorticoid deficiency, and androgen excess. 95% of CAH cases are due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency.
