J Indian Assoc Pediatr Surg. 2009 Oct;14(4):221-3. doi: 10.4103/0971-9261.59607.

Abstract

Clinical manifestations of adrenal hemorrhage vary depending on the degree and rate of hemorrhage, as well as the amount of adrenal cortex compromised by hemorrhage. We report here a case of neonatal adrenal hemorrhage that presented with late onset neonatal jaundice. The cause of adrenal hemorrhage was birth asphyxia.

Keywords: Adrenal; jaundice; neonatal hemorrhage.
