The median age at presentation was 4.8 \u00b1 4.2 years (range: 1-14.6 years), and the mean follow-up period was 7.8 \u00b1 5.2 years (range: 0.5-17.9 years). Primary adrenal insufficiency (PAI) was present in all cases. Three patients were diagnosed during family screening. Mineralocorticoid (MC) deficiency was detected in 20 patients (83%), and recovered in 2 cases during follow-up. One patient with no MC deficiency at presentation had developed a salt-wasting crisis during acute illness. None of the 46,XY cases showed atypical genitalia; 3 had micropenis, 1 had cryptorchidism, and 2 patients required sex steroid therapy because of subsequent hypergonadotropic hypogonadism later.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Mild P450scc deficiency due to p.R451W variant in the CYP11A1 gene is associated with late onset PAI with variable MC and sex hormone deficiency.
