Вроджена гіперплазія надниркових залоз внаслідок дефіциту 3-бета-гідроксистероїддегідрогенази

Визначення(English summary)

A rare form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to 3-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (HSD3B2) deficiency and characterized by salt-wasting and non-salt wasting CAH with a wide variety of symptoms, including glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid deficiencies in both sexes. Salt wasting can lead to dehydration and hypotension in the first few weeks of life. Affected males had undervirilization manifesting as a micropenis to severe perineoscrotal hypospadias. Females show normal or mildly virilized external genitalia (mild clitoromegaly, labial fusion) due to dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) accumulation and conversion to androgens by the normal HSD3B1.
