Abstract
This article describes the specific radiological findings of congenital lipoid adrenal hyperplasia (lipoid CAH) in a phenotypic female and karyotypic 46XY infant. Radiological examination showed enlarged bilateral adrenal glands with fatty accumulation and spared medulla. These findings are key to differentiating lipoid CAH from the diseases that cause adrenal insufficiency during early infancy, including other forms of congenital adrenal hyperplasia.Entities:
