  • Title: Calcified neonatal adrenal hemorrhage: diagnostic and therapeutic considerations.
    Author: Donn SM, Pollack LD, Roloff DW.
    Journal: Am J Perinatol; 1983 Oct; 1(1):36-9. PubMed ID: 6680649.
    Abstract:
    We present the case of a premature infant in whom adrenal calcification was present at birth and postulate an etiology of in utero adrenal hemorrhage. The subject of neonatal adrenal hemorrhage is reviewed with respect to a reassessment of diagnostic and therapeutic considerations. Ultrasonography and intravenous urography confirm the diagnosis and differentiate other retroperitoneal lesions. Adrenal hemorrhage is most often a self-limited process, and medical management results in uneventful recovery of almost all patients.
