HSD11B2 and Increased circulating aldosterone concentration: Apparent mineralocorticoid excess (AME) is an ultrarare autosomal recessive disorder resulting from deficiency of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 (11βHSD2) caused by mutations in HSD11B2. The purpose of this study was to identify novel compound heterozygous HSD11B2 mutations in a Chinese pedigree with AME and conduct a systematic review evaluating the AME clinical features associated with HSD11B2 mutations.
