This report is the first application of the reverse dot-blot (RDB) assay for diagnosis of the nine most common point mutations in the CYP21 gene associated with CAH (P30L, g.659A>G or g.659C>G, I172N, I236N-V237E-M239K, V281L, g.1767-1768insT, Q318X, R356W, P453S).
In group C (P30L, V281L, P453S in homozygous or compound heterozygous form with a more severe mutation), ppv(C) was 64.7% to exhibit the nonclassical form of CAH, but 90% when excluding the P30L mutation.
