Etiology • Adrenal Tumors • Carcinoma • Adenoma • Not Defined • Ectopic ACTH syndrome • Nodular Adrenal Hyperplasia • Undefined Adrenal Hyperplasia • ACTH Producing Tumor PRODUCING EXCESS CORTISOL
Clinical Symptoms Weight Gain 92% Growth Failure 84% Osteopenia 74% Fatigue 67% Hypertension 63% Delayed Puberty 60% Plethora 46% Acne 46% Hirsuitism 46%
Clinical Symptoms Continued Compulsive Behavior 44% Striae 36% Bruising 28% Buffalo Hump 28% Headache 26% Delayed Bone Age 11% Nocturia 8%
Treatment: 1. Find the Cause2. Remove It
Normal Sexual Differentiation Don’t have time to discuss in detail. H-Y Antigen on Short Arm of the Y Chromosome is Required. Pseduoautosomal Region of the Y Chromosome Recombination During Meiosis. Testes Determining Factor ZFY Gene Initially, but can have males with out it. SRY Gene now thought to be the Testes Determining Factor.
Virilization Don’t forget that virilization of the developing female (and less so the male) can occur with intrauterine exposure to Androgens or Prostaglandins.
Girls are GirlsandBoys are Boys (Usually)
Next We Will DiscussTwo Situationsthat are Reasonably Rare.But, you should be Aware that theyExist.
Girls are GirlsandBoys are Girls (Sometimes)
Complete Syndrome ofAndrogen Resistance Previously Called Testicular Feminization Syndrome Follows X-linked Pattern There is a Variable Defect Beyond Our Scope Phenotypic FemalesMales 1:20,000 to 1:64,000 “men”
Diagnosis Not usually suspected until puberty Normal external female phenotype No breast development No axillary or pubic hair Amenorrhea Physical Exam Reveals Either: Inguinal Hernia v. Labial Masses
Findings Structural Issues – No oviducts, no uterus Only lower 1/3 of vagina (vaginal pouch) Prepubertal testes normal Lesions of Sertoli Cells Post-pubertal Precancerous
Treatment Structural Issues -- Ethical Issues -- (Jewish, Catholic, Mormons) First Do No Harm Do you tell? At what age? Pure E2 replacement ↓LH Levels (LHRH)
Girls are GirlsandBoys are Girls Until Puberty then Boys are Boys
5 alpha-ReductaseDeficiency No Androgen Resistance Dominican Republic & São Paulo All Newborns are Female huevo a los doce – “eggs at twelve” Raised Female until Puberty Then Progressive Virilization Can Reproduce, but ↓ Fertility
Girls are GirlsandBoys are ??? Beyond Our Discussion
Treatment Dependson Syndrome • Small Penis • Cryptorchidism • Hypogonadism
Kallmann Syndrome Most Common Isolated gonado- tropin deficiency 1:10,000 births 5:1 male:female 50% males born with microphallus Anosmia v. hyposmia also with variable expression Hypothalamic hypogonadism
