Abstract

Abstract: Congenital adrenal hyperplasia includes defects in the synthesis of steroid hormones in the adrenal cortex. The implications of this disorder manifest in other genitourinary organs, including ovaries and uterus. The diagnosis may be suspected based on the clinical and radiologic features. Abstract : The diagnosis of congenital adrenal hyperplasia may be made on the basis of clinicoradiologic features if enzyme assays or genetic testing are not available.
