Prenatal diagnosis and treatment of steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency. [PDF]
Steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD) accounts for 90-95% of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) cases. It is classified into three distinct clinical phenotypes: the salt-wasting (SW), simple virilizing (SV) and nonclassical forms (NC). As girls with the SW and SV forms of 21-OHD are exposed to high systemic levels of adrenal androgens during ...
