Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH)

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), also known as adrenal gland hypoplasia or dysplasia, is a rare but serious condition that occurs in children. The adrenal glands play a crucial role in the human endocrine system, producing hormones responsible for various functions, including regulating the body's response to stress, managing metabolic processes, and supporting the immune system. Congenital defects can lead to the underdevelopment of this gland or the disruption of its functional activity, creating life-threatening situations for children. Adrenal gland defects can arise from various genetic and environmental factors.
