Abstract
|
|
|
Major known causes of neonatal adrenal insufficiency are prolonged maternalsteroid use, adrenal hemorrhage from the perinatal stress and adrenogenital syndrome. Theoretically adrenal aplasia might be a cause of neonatal adrenal insufficiency but
it
has
not been reported yet.
We had experienced a case of adrenal aplasia in a 5 day-old male neonate whose chief complaint was hyperpigmentation. His laboratory findings were compatible with adrenal insufficiency and adrenal gland was not detected by the ultrasonography and
thin
section abdominal CT.
We reported a cases of adrenal aplasia with a brief review of the related literature.
