Congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OH CAH), in all its forms, accounts for over 95% of diagnosed cases of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and ""CAH"" in most contexts refers to 21-hydroxylase deficiency. An overview of the other types of CAH is presented in the main article.
