Testicular tumours in adrenogenital syndrome.

ABSTRACT

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) arises from genetic enzyme defects, often in CYP21A2, causing primary adrenal insufficiency. In this case report, a man in his late 20s with lifelong CAH faced challenges in adhering to medication. Suboptimal treatment led to the development of testicular adrenal rest tumours, diagnosed by ultrasound, and hypogonadism. Enhanced adherence restored hormone levels, promoting eugonadism. Adherence plays a crucial role in diminishing tumour size and preventing complications, potentially necessitating orchiectomy in severe cases.
