Objective: The aim of this study was to define which hormonal cut-off values can discriminate polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) from non classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-NCAH).Patients and methods: We included 70 women in reproductive age who attended our Unit from 2003 to 2018 for a diagnosis of PCOS with a basal 17hydroxyprogesterone (17OHP) level in the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle ≥200 ng/d...

Background: P450 Oxidoreductase (POR) Deficiency(PORD) represents the most complex form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia. It usuallycauses genital ambiguity in both sexes, and eventually peculiar skeletal malformations resembling Antley-Bixler syndrome. Co-occurrence of POR deficiency and Argininosuccinatelyase Deficiency (ALD)in the samepatient born to non-consanguineous parents has never been reported.Case report: A male patient was born at term to no...
