Abstract

We previously reported a 7.5% incidence of congenital anomalies in 105 cases of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH).¹ Subsequently, we have examined the intravenous pyelograms (IVPs) of 23 patients for the presence of anomalies of the upper urinary tract. These pyelograms were performed for the following reasons: evaluation of recurrent urinary tract infections in eight patients, recurrent hematuria in one, evaluation of hypertension in one, evaluation of possible nephrosis in one, and initial diagnostic work-up in 12 patients.
