High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! 11B-Hydroxylase deficient congenital adrenal hyperplasia is an uncommon form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia resulting from a defect in the gene for the enzyme which mediates the final step of cortisol synthesis in the adrenal. 11B-OH CAH results in hypertension due to excessive mineralocorticoid effects. It also causes excessive androgen production both before and after birth and can virilize a genetically female fetus or a child of either sex. Congenital adrenal hyperplasia refers to any of several autosomal recessive diseases resulting from defects in steps of the synthesis of cortisol from cholesterol by the adrenal glands. All of the forms of CAH involve excessive or defective production of sex steroids and can pervert or impair development of primary or secondary sex characteristics in affected infants, children, and adults. Many also involve excessive or defective production of mineralocorticoids, which can cause hypertension or salt wasting, respectively.
