8. 08/10/2015Introduction: The term congenital adrenal hyperplasia include several autosomal recessive disorders, all of which involve a deficiency or relative defect in cortisol, aldosterone synthesis, increase or decrease level of androgen..

12. Pathophysiology:

13. cont..  Increased adrenal androgen biosynthesis  Mineralocorticoid biosynthesis  Decreased cortisol biosynthesis Anorexia Poor Weight gain Fatigue Vomiting Weakness Hypoglycemia Virilization Dehydration Hyponatremia Hyperkalemia

16. 08/10/2015 Labs : Low cortison, aldosteron and androgen levels. Decrease or absent response to ACTH stimulation test. Increase plasma renin level Massive adrenal enlargment by imaging study.

17. 08/10/2015 CAH due to 21 hydroxylase deficiency

18. 08/10/2015 CAH due to 21 hydroxylase deficiency Causes more than 90% of CAH. Result from mutation in CYT P21. It is charactericed by decrease production of cortison and aldosteron and increase progestron and 17 oh progestrone.. Less severely affected pt can synthesize aldosterone but have elevated levels of androgens: “Simple virilizing disease”.

Untreated children of both sexes develop additional signs of androgen excess after birth. Rapid somatic growth and accelerated skeletal maturation with premature closure of epiphysis. Rapid somatic growth and accelerated skeletal maturation with premature closure of epiphysis. Pubic and axillary hair, acne and deep voice may develop. In girls, breast development and menstruation do not occur unless the excessive production of androgens is suppressed by Tx. Pubic and axillary hair, acne and deep voice may develop.

25. 08/10/2015 LABORATORY FINDINGS Pt with salt-losing disease have hyponatremia, hyperkalemia, acidosis and often hypoglycemia usually 1-2 wk or longer after birth. 17-OH progesterone is high. Measurement is best 30 min after an IV bolus of cosyntropin (ACTH 1-24). Cortisol level is low. Androstenedione and testosterone are elevated in affected females. ACTH is high. High Renine levels with low levels of aldosterone.

27. Treatment: 1) GLUCOCORTICOID REPLACEMENT: –Hydrocortisone8-18 mg/m2/day –Prednisone 1.5-4 mg/m2/day –Dexamethasone0.3-0.9 mg/m2/day - Double or triple doses are indicated during periods of stress. - Double or triple doses are indicated during periods of stress. - Linear growth, weight gain, pubertal development and skeletal maturation must be followed closely. - Linear growth, weight gain, pubertal development and skeletal maturation must be followed closely.

Sex assignment of infants with intersex conditions is usually based on expected sexual functioning and fertility in adulthood with surgical correction of the external genitals to confirm with the sex assignment.
