NonClassic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology, 2010
Nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (NCAH) due to P450c21 (21-hydroxylase deficiency) is a common autosomal recessive disorder. This disorder is due to mutations in the CYP21A2 gene which is located at chromosome 6p21. The clinical features predominantly reflect androgen excess rather than adrenal insufficiency leading to an ascertainment bias ...
