Congenital adrenal hyperplasia
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is an autosomal recessive disorder of adrenal steroid biosynthesis affecting 1/10,000 to 1/15,000 live births. The most common form is 21-hydroxylase deficiency due to mutations in the CYP21A2 gene. CAH classically presents at birth with ambiguous genitalia in an affected female.

NonClassic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia [PDF]
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 ...

Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
The incidence of congenital adrenal hyperplasia in Saudi Arabia and the frequency of the carrier rate are not well known. Both figures should be high, considering the commonness of first-degree consanguinity in this part of the world. We present 25 cases of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, most of them due to a defect of the 21 hydroxylase enzyme ...
