Hypoaldosteronism without hypocortisolism - an unusual presentation of APECED syndrome

Gounari Eleni , Buchanan Charles , Ghataore Lea , Hannah Romanie , Bushan Arya Ved

Background: Automimmune polyendocrinopathy candidiasis ectodermal dystrophy (APECED) is an extremely rare autoimmune condition caused by AIRE (autoimmune regulator) gene mutations and characterised by a classic triad of 1) chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis, 2) hypoparathyroidism and 3) adrenal insufficiency. APECED can involve any endocrine or non-endocrine organ. Consequently, clinicians need to be mindful of the great variability in presentation. Although ad...

A Novel Mutation of HSD3beta2 Presenting as Hypospadias with Salt-wasting in a Male Infant

Buchanan C.R. , Kalitsi J. , Ghataore L. , Taylor N.F. , Clifford-Mobley O. , Rumsby G. , Kapoor R.R.

Background: HSD3B2 is a rare cause of autosomal recessive primary adrenal insufficiency, potentially associated with under virilisation of XY males and virilisation of XX females. We present a case of a male infant presenting at term with ambiguous genitalia (DSD) with underlying diagnosis confirmed biochemically and genetically with a novel mutation of HSD3beta2.Objective: Case report.Patients and methods: Baby was born as FTND wi...

Secondary Pseudohypoaldosteronism Type 1: the Role of a Urinary Steroid Profile

Grace M L , Murray D M , Joyce C , Taylor N F , Ghataore L , O'Connell S M

Background: Secondary pseudohypoaldosteronism (PHA) type 1 is an uncommon salt losing condition of infancy caused by transient resistance of the mineralocorticoid receptors (MR) of the renal tubule to aldosterone. This can be secondary to urinary tract infection (UTI), urinary tract malformation (UTM) or obstructive uropathy. Ninety percent of reported cases present before 3 months and nearly all are under 7 months of age.Objective and hypotheses: The co...

Pseudohypoaldosteronism Type 1: Role of Urinary Steroid Profiling in Specific and Early Diagnosis: Lessons in Differential Diagnosis of PHA1 vs PHA2 (Renal Tract Anomaly)

Abbot V , Ghataore L , Pieterse D J , Chapman S , Kapoor R R , Taylor N F , Buchanan C R

Background: Pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1 (PHA1) is a rare disorder of neonatal salt loss unresponsive to mineralocorticoids, requiring salt supplementation. It results from resistance of kidney and/or other tissues to mineralocorticoids, arising from mutations in genes encoding mineralocorticoid receptor (MR: NR3C2; autosomal dominant), or epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) genes (SCNN1A/B/G; autosomal recessive). Milder clinical phenotype associates with ren...
