Abstract

IMPORTANCE: Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is the most common primary adrenal insufficiency in children, involving excess androgens secondary to disrupted steroidogenesis as early as the seventh gestational week of life. Although structural brain abnormalities are seen in CAH, little is known about facial morphology.
