Endocr Pract. 1995 May-Jun;1(3):161-2. doi: 10.4158/EP.1.3.161.

Abstract

A diversity of malignancies have been reported in patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia. We report a case of multiple meningiomas, tumors which are more common in females and reported to have sex steroid receptors, in a 46,XX male (severe female hermaphrodite raised as a male) with 21-hydroxylase deficiency. The patient has been treated with glucocorticoids since 3 years of age and testosterone since puberty.
