Overview
Historical Perspective
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 11β-hydroxylase deficiency was first described by Dr. Walter Eberlein and Dr. Alfred M. Bongiovanni, American physicians, in 1956 based on the study they conducted on accumulated steroids.[1] In 1999, White was the first to discover the association between homozygous mutation in the CYP11B1 gene and development of congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 11β-hydroxylase deficiency.[2]
Classification
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 11β-hydroxylase deficiency may be classified according to clinical presentation into 2 subtypes: classic form and the non-classic form.
