Bilateral adrenal hemorrhage is a rare cause of adrenal insufficiency in adults. Because of the nonspecific manifestations of adrenal insufficiency, antemortem diagnosis is difficult. Serial computed tomographic scans of the abdomen are a valuable adjunct in confirming the diagnosis of bilateral adrenal he...

In secondary adrenal insufficiency, some steroidogenic capacity is present, therefore some cortisol is produced in response to the ACTH; thus, cortisol secretion is less than normal but greater than the negligible values seen in primary adrenal insufficiency. The 4- to 6-hour intravenous ACTH test ...
