Overview

Immunohistochemical staining of the adrenal-gland may be used for the diagnosis of congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency and it shows hyperplasia, poorly defined zonation, and intermingling of the chromaffin and cortical cells.

Other Diagnostic Studies

• Immunohistochemical staining of the adrenal-gland may be used in patients with classic 21-hydroxylase deficiency and it shows:

• Hyperplasia

• Poorly defined zonation

• Intermingling of the chromaffin and cortical cells
