Özet

Objective: The congenital adrenal hyperplasias (CAH) are a group of autosomal recessive disorders due to decreased activity of the enzymes responsible for cortisol biosynthesis. Since CYP21 gene mutations in non-classical CAH (NC-CAH) due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency among Turkish women have not been well characterized, we performed CYP21 genotype analyses to determine the frequency of specific Mutations in our population.
