  • Title: [Encapsulated adrenal hemorrhage in the newborn infant. Study of 8 cases].
    Author: Rey A, Arena J, Nogués A, Albisu Y.
    Journal: An Esp Pediatr; 1984 Sep 15; 21(3):238-43. PubMed ID: 6095711.
    Abstract:
    We report 8 cases of neonatal encapsulated adrenal haemorrhage clinically suspected and diagnosed in living newborns. Six of them were right-sided (75%), and only 2 left-sided (25%). Clinical manifestations were limited to the palpation of a flank mass and or the presence of jaundice of unknown cause. We comment on the etiology clinical picture, diagnosis, course and treatment of adrenal haemorrhage pointing out to the importance of ultra-sonography for diagnosis and follow-up, as opposed to IVP. In four patients we could sustain the presumption of normal adrenal function by means of a rapid ACTH stimulation test.
