<unk>  is an endocrine disorder that is an uncommon and potentially lethal form of congenital<unk><unk>  (CAH). It arises from defects in the earliest stages of steroid hormone synthesis: the transport of cholesterol into the mitochondria and the conversion of cholesterol to pregnenolone—the first step in the synthesis of all steroid hormones.<unk>  CAH causes mineralocorticoid deficiency in affected infants and children. Male infants are severely undervirilized causing their external genitalia to look feminine. The<unk> s are large and filled with<unk>  globules derived from cholesterol.
