Abstract Sonographic examination of the adrenal glands of three newborns with congenital adrenal hyperplasia demonstrated a cerebriform pattern. This is introduced as a sonographic feature specific to the disease. This finding in patients with ambiguous genitalia should suggest the diagnosis even if the adrenals are not significantly enlarged, and should prompt appropriate biochemical analysis and treatment.
