Overview
Patients with 21-hydroxylase deficient congenital adrenal hyperplasia usually appear underweight and dehydrated. Physical examination is usually remarkable for hypotension and virilization.
Physical Examination
Common physical examination findings of 21-hydroxylase deficient congenital adrenal hyperplasia include:[1][2][3][4]
Appearance
- Classic salt wasting type: infants will be both underweight and dehydrated.
- Children before puberty will have tall stature, increased muscle mass, acne, and adult body odor.
Vitals
- Classic salt wasting type: hypotension
Head
- Hirsutism
- Alopecia
- Deep voice
- Acne
Genitals
- Female in classic type:
- Genital ambiguity
- Labial fusion
- Female in non-classic type:
- Clitoromegaly
- Primary amenorrhea
- Menstrual irregularity in young women
- Male in classic type:
- Penile enlargement
- Testicular mass
- Hyperpigmentation of the scrotum
- Early virilization at two to four years of age with (pubic hair, growth spurt, adult body odor).
- Male in non-classic type:
- Normal appearing at birth.
Cognitive function:
- Female:
- Male-typical cognitive pattern (better performance on spatial tasks, worse performance on verbal tasks)
- Cross-gender role behavior
- lower intelligence quotients (IQ)
