Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia Presenting as Life Threatening Hyponatremic Dehydration: A Tale of Missed Diagnosis [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research
Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) is a group of autosomal recessive disorders that occur due to defects in steroid synthesis. It is characterised by a deficiency of adrenocortical hormones and an excess of steroid precursors.
