'Don't leap to a conclusion of sepsis!' Congenital adrenal hyperplasia in male neonates: case series and literature review.

We report two cases to emphasize the importance of establishing a prompt diagnosis of CAH in male neonates, presenting with a clinical picture initially suggestive of neonatal sepsis. Inadequate response owing to delayed diagnosis in these cases may result in rapid deterioration and increased morbidity and mortality. PMID: 31584344 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
