> I don't have numbers to counter this off the top of my head, but congenital adrenal hyperplasia is a rare syndrome, but still common enough that it is taught to every medical student and tested on our boards repeatedly. You are confusing Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (ie 21 alpha hydroxylase deficiency), the bane of every 3rd year med student and adrenal medullary hyperplasia, a much rarer condition (I don’t recall it ever coming up during medical school). Congenital Adrenal hyperplasia involves the cortex where the corticosteroids are produced. Epinephrine and norepinephrine are catecholamines produced by the medulla. AMH is more similar to pheochromocytoma though. |
