The adrenal hemorrhage is a relatively rare event in newborns but must be considered in the presence of a persistent unexplained jaundice, especially in presence of predisposing factors. Serial ultrasonography is the modality of choice for initial diagnosis and follow-up of neonatal adrenal hemorrhage. We report two cases of neonatal adrenal hemorrhage presenting with persistent jaundice. The c...
متن کاملNeonatal Adrenal Hemorrhage presenting as Prolonged Hyperbilirubinemia.
Adrenal hemorrhage is quiet uncommon in neonates with reported incidence of 0.2%-0.55% [1]. In neonates, adrenal glands are large in size and have abundant vascular supply, so more prone to hemorrhage. Clinical manifestations may vary from relatively benign as anemia, flank mass, discoloration of scrotum, neonatal jaundice to life threatening addisonian crisis depending upon the extent of hemor...

متن کاملHomozygous beta thalassemia presenting as neonatal jaundice.
In hemolytic anaemia there is shorter than normal erythrocytic survival resulting in increased destruction of red blood cells (RBCs) which leads to raised bilirubin levels. Appearance of jaundice, however, depends not only Upon increased biirubin production but also on clearance mechanisms in the liver. These clearance mechanisms are not well developed in the neonates resulting in greater incid...

The causes, significance, and treatment of unconjugated and conjugated hyperbilirubinemia are different; and because this is so, it is important to review the main causes and management of unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia. Conjugated hyperbilirubinemia in the newborn period could be either due to ...
