Patient and parent perspectives on testicular adrenal rest tumors in congenital adrenal hyperplasia

Conclusions: Although most responders were concerned about TARTs, less than half recalled discussing this issue with their endocrinologist, and less than half were aware of the possibility of infertility. Although TARTs are most often treated medically, several responders were referred to a urologist. Standardized patient education and consensus guidelines are needed for the surveillance and management of TARTs in males with classic CAH.
