Congenital adrenal hyperplasia in caused by a defect in the biosynthesis of cortisol as a result of deviciency in one of the essential enzymes, most commonly 21-hydroxylase and is an autosomal recessive disease in close genetic linkage with HLA. The common clinical manifestations of congenital adrenal hyperplasia is progressive virilization in both sexes, abnormal external genitalia in the...

Adrenogenital syndrome is caused by a defect in biosynthesis of adrenal corticoids as a result of deficiency in one of the essential enzymes, most commonly 21-hydroxylase. About 50% of 21-hydroxylase deficiency have salt losing type as a result of aldosterone deficiency. We have experienced a casa of adrenogenital syndrome associated with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (salt losing form) in a 3...
Adrenogenital Syndrome with Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia.
Myoung Sung Moon, Kwang Nam Kim, Woo Gill Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1984;27(5):511-515.   Published online May 31, 1984
When the adrenogenital syndrome is associated with congenital adrenal hyperplasia, it is caused by an inborn defect in the biosynthesis of adrenal corticoids. Especially, infant with congenital adrenal hyperplasia caused by a 21-hydroxylation. defect in steroidogenesis often present with salt-losing crisis, hyponatremia and dehydration. Vomiting is prominent and disturbances in cardiac rate and rhythm may occur. Without treatment, collapse and death...
