Overview

Discovery

  • Congenital adrenal hyperplasia was first discovered by Dr. Luigi DeCrecchio, an Italian anatomist, in 1865 following a case report of a female patient with enlarged adrenal glands, no testes but male appearing genitals and female reproductive system internally.[1]
  • Congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 17 alpha-hydroxylase deficiency was first reported by Dr. Edward G. Biglieri, an American endocrinologist, in 1963-1966 following a case report.[2]

Landmark Events in the Development of Treatment Strategies

  • In 1965, the detection of congenital adrenal hyperplasia by measuring the elevation of adrenal hormones in amniotic fluid.
