Abstract:
Objective To pay attention to screening family disease and gene examination in patient with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). Method In this study, we investigated clinical data and performed gene sequencing of the pedigree and his family members with CAH. Results Based on clinical data, 3 of 6 family members were diagnosed CAH. Bone age of two boys nearly reach the maximum value. Genetic sequencing result indicated a T>A mutation of 1 004 position in CYP21A2 gene, which induced protein change I172N. Conclusion Disease screening and gene examine should be actively executed in patient with CAH in order to obtain diagnosis and start treatment as early as possible.
