Overview
Prenatal screening for congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 11β-hydroxylase deficiency, by an 11-deoxycortisol injection into the amniotic fluid, is recommended among patients with suspected congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 11β-hydroxylase deficiency
Screening
Injecting a dose of 11-deoxycortisol into the amniotic fluid helps in prenatal screening of congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 11β-hydroxylase deficiency.[1]
