RESUMO
We report a case of a fetus with a prenatal diagnosis of classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency. Although CAH is typically assessed postnatally, this fetal case had multiple prenatal clinical assessments made feasible by an interdisciplinary CAH center. The approach facilitated the development and delivery of comprehensive and earlier care for the fetus, and the family living with this complex, congenital condition, with perinatology, endocrinology, genetic counseling, psychology, and urology involvement. As well, the addition of fetal MRI to standard ultrasound revealed significant deficits in the biparietal diameter, occipitofrontal diameter, and total intracranial volume of the fetal CAH brain. These early anomalies in the brain suggest that neurological comorbidities observed in older children and adults with CAH should be studied as early as prenatally, with the addition of fetal MRI to ultrasound potentially being useful for identifying and understanding prenatal anomalies in CAH.
