17α Hydroxylase/17,20 lyase deficiency: clinical features and genetic insights from a large Turkey cohort.
Endocrine
September 2024
Ankara University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Pediatric Endocrinology, Ankara, Türkiye.
Article Synopsis
- This study focuses on 17α Hydroxylase/17,20 Lyase Deficiency (17OHD), a rare form of adrenal hyperplasia, highlighting its clinical features such as delayed puberty and hypertension commonly diagnosed in late adolescence.
- Researchers analyzed data from 97 cases across the country, revealing that hypertension was present in 65% and hypokalemia in 34% of patients, with a significant number requiring antihypertensive treatment.
- The findings suggest that early diagnosis can be guided by hypertension and hypokalemia, while the final heights of patients generally fall within normal ranges, though the connection between genetic mutations and clinical outcomes remains unclear.
Non-traumatic spontaneous ruptured hepatocellular adenoma after selective transcatheter arterial chemo-embolization for reduction of tumor mass: A case report.

Department of Radiology, Healts Sciences University, Bakirkoy Dr. Sadi Konuk Training and Resarch Hospital, İstanbul-Turkey.
It is important to detect hepatic adenomas, which are generally well-confined lesions, as urgent treatment is required due to the risk of bleeding and conversion to malignancy. Dimensions can vary between 1 and 15 cm, and the risk of hemorrhage is higher in large and multiple-focus adenomas. The case is here presented of a patient with spontaneous ruptured liver adenoma after selective transcatheter arterial chemo-embolization for reduction of tumor mass, with discussion of the clinical, computed tomography, angiographic findings, and treatment strategies.
