Q

what is the presentation of aromatase deficiency

A

Individuals with aromatase deficiency are unable to convert androgens to estrogens. Therefore, karyotypically female (46 XX) patients are born with ambiguous external genitalia and present with female pseudohermaphroditism. They have normal internal genitalia. At the time of puberty, they fail to develop secondary sexual characteristics and typically present with amenorrhea (due to the development of ovarian cysts that impair ovulation) as well as features of virilization due to increased testosterone (e.g., severe acne, hirsutism). Mothers of affected children may develop similar features during pregnancy due to fetal androgens crossing the placenta. In addition to these abnormalities of sex development, female as well as male individuals frequently have a tall stature due to a delayed fusion of the epiphyseal growth plates and signs of osteoporosis (e.g., bone fractures after minor trauma), caused by estrogen deficiency.

Q

what is the presentation of congenital adrenal hyperplasia

A

can also lead to peripheral precocious puberty as the excess adrenal androgens are aromatized to estrogen in the ovaries. However, due to a general excess in androgens, females are often born with ambiguous or male external genitalia, and virilization during puberty is common. This girl has normal external genitalia and no evidence of virilization (e.g., male-pattern hair growth).
