Brain Differences in the Prefrontal Cortex, Amygdala, and Hippocampus in Youth with Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia

Abstract

This study replicates previous findings of smaller medial temporal lobe volumes in CAH patients and suggests that the lateral nucleus of the amygdala, as well as subiculum and subfield CA1 of the hippocampus, are particularly affected within the medial temporal lobes in CAH youth.
