Resumo: The ACTH test has been used to confirm the diagnosis of adrenal insufficiency and the classic and the non-classic adrenal hyperplasia due to the 3-HSD, 21 OH e 110H deficiencies. This article reviews the historical aspects of the use of ACTH in the diagnosis of hirsutism and points out its mains indications. In spite of new biological molecular advances in the diagnosis of adrenal enzymatic deficiencies, the use of the ACTH test can help the physician to predict both genothipus and fenothipus in populations with hyperandrogenic manifestations due to non-classical or late-onset congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

Revisou-se vários aspectos históricos envolvendo o uso do ACTH no diagnóstico do hirsutismo e são analisadas suas principais indicações. Apesar dos novos avanços em biologia molecular no diagnóstico das deficiências enzimáticas das supra-renais, o uso do teste com ACTH pode ajudar o clínico a predizer o genótipo e fenótipo dos indivíduos que apresentam manifestações hiperandrogênicas devido à hiperplasia congênita da supra-renal na sua forma não-clássica.Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP), Escola Paulista de Medicina (EPM) Department of GynecologyUNIFESP, EPM, Department of GynecologySciELOAssociação Paulista de Medicina - APMUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)Prata Lima, Marco Fábio [UNIFESP]Nunes, Márcia Gaspar [UNIFESP]Bonduki, Cláudio Emilio [UNIFESP]Haidar, Mauro Abi [UNIFESP]Lima, Geraldo Rodrigues [UNIFESP]Baracat, Edmund Chada [UNIFESP]2015-06-14T13:24:35Z2015-06-14T13:24:35Z1997-04-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion1403-1405application/pdfhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1516-31801997000200006São Paulo Medical Journal.
