  • Title: Adrenal insufficiency secondary to postoperative bilateral adrenal haemorrhage.
    Author: Cramer MJ, Haitjema T, Ernst JM, de Maat CE.
    Journal: Neth J Med; 1994 Jul; 45(1):21-4. PubMed ID: 8065480.
    Abstract:
    Two case reports are presented of adrenal insufficiency due to bilateral adrenal haemorrhage following surgery. This unusual complication with its non-specific manifestations may result in unexpected clinical deterioration of the postoperative patient. Corticosteroid replacement and repletion of sodium and water deficits should be given promptly when adrenal haemorrhage is suspected.
