This videotape is part of a series on the morphologic basis of cross-sectional echocardiography. Professor Robert Anderson and Dr Stephen Barker explore the very basics of the cardiac examination in the adult. Starting with a consideration of the location of the heart within the chest, and then the position of the various structures within the heart, they show how these inter-relationships condition the echocardiographic examination. They demonstrate the limited windows of access through which the echocardiographer can image the heart, using sectioned autopsied specimens to reveal the underlyi

Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) is an inherited disorder of the adrenal glands. Its effects can be wide-ranging and serious-from problems of ambiguous genitalia in baby girls; to problems with growth and physical development; to problems with infertility and hormone imbalance. When undiagnosed and untreated, CAH can also be life threatening. While severe forms of CAH are uncommon, milder forms can affect as many as 1 in 100 people. Yet, CAH remains difficult to understand and care for. Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia: A Parents’ Guide takes a nuts-and-bolts look at CAH-what this cond
