Objective: To report a case of untreated classic 21 hydroxylase (OH) deficiency congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) in a transgender patient resulting in pulmonary embolisms (PEs) and bilateral adrenal masses.
Methods: A 36-year-old male (birth sex: female) presenting with bilateral PEs in the setting of long-standing, untreated classic 21OH CAH was also found to have bilateral adrenal masses (unconfirmed myelolipomas).
Results: Further history revealed a known diagnosis of CAH.
Purpose: To determine if and when fetal structures are identifiable during first trimester pregnancy on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in women with acute abdominopelvic pain.
Methods: Sixty-four first trimester MRI examinations performed for evaluation of abdominopelvic pain were reviewed retrospectively. T2-weighted images were assessed independently by three radiologists for the presence of gestational sac, yolk sac, fetal pole, and limb buds.
