Aldosterone hypersecretion in “non-salt-losing” congenital adrenal hyperplasia
AUTOR(ES)
Bartter, Frederic C.
RESUMO
Patients with the “non-salt-losing” form of the adrenogenital syndrome were studied before and after suppression of adrenal cortical activity with carbohydrate-active steroids. The response of aldosterone secretion to sodium deprivation was measured; in some patients response to adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) was measured as well.
