Pediatric Primary Adrenal Insufficiency: A 21-year Single Center Experience.

CONCLUSION: We determined etiologies in 86.3% of children with non-CAH PAI through specific clinical and laboratory findings with/without molecular analysis of candidate genes. ALD was the most common etiology. Nowadays, advanced molecular analyse can be utilized to establish a specific genetic diagnosis of PAI for patients who have no specific diagnostic features.
