Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a group of autosomal recessive disorders most often caused by enzyme 21-hydroxylase deficiency. Most mutations causing enzymatic deficiency are generated by recombinations between the active gene CYP21 and the pseudogene CYP21P. Only 1-2% of affected alleles result from spontaneous mutations. The phenotype of CAH varies greatly, usually classified as classical or nonclassical, depending on variable degree in 21-hydroxylase activity. Here we report a divergent phenotype of two human leukocyte antigen identical siblings, affected by nonclassical and classical CAH caused by 21-hydroxylase deficiency due to different genotype.
