  • Title: Acute adrenal insufficiency resulting from adrenal hemorrhage as indicated by post-operative hypotension.
    Author: Szalados JE, Vukmir RB.
    Journal: Intensive Care Med; 1994; 20(3):216-8. PubMed ID: 8014290.
    Abstract:
    We examined the incidence, diagnosis and therapy of acute adrenal insufficiency, secondary to adrenal hemorrhage. This insufficiency resulted in temperature irregularities. hemodynamic instability, and a large volume resuscitation requirement post-operatively. The case illustrates that a high level of suspicion should be maintained in a clinical scenario that mimics sepsis or myocardial insufficiency in the intensive care unit.
