The Adrenal

Hormone Research in Paediatrics, 2004
During the past 15 years, considerable progress has been made in our understanding of the genetic basis of adrenal development and function. More than 30 single gene disorders have now been identified that can affect the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in humans (fig. 1, 2; table 1). This review highlights recent advances in the molecular pathology

An evaluation of adrenal mass and adrenal cholesterol as measures of adrenal activity

British Poultry Science, 1982
1. The effects of twice daily injections of corticotrophin (1 IU/kg body weight) or restriction of food intake to 75% of normal on body mass, adrenal mass and adrenal cholesterol were determined on chicks from 1 to 21 d of age. 2. Only the birds subjected to restricted feeding showed a reduced growth rate. 3.

Adrenal gland and adrenal mass calcification

European Radiology, 2004
With the widespread use of computed tomography (CT), it is not unusual to find calcification within the adrenal glands. There are a variety of adrenal lesions that may calcify, but usually the appearance of the calcification is not specific. However, when the pattern and morphology of the adrenal calcification are combined with the other imaging ...

Adrenalitis

Der Pathologe, 2016
Inflammation of the adrenal glands is caused by autoimmunopathies or infections and can induce adrenal insufficiency. Autoimmune lymphocytic adrenalitis is often combined with other autoimmune diseases and the most frequent cause of Addison's disease; however, it only becomes clinically apparent when more than 90 % of the adrenal cortex has been ...

Adrenal Disorders

2012
The most frequent cause nowadays is autoimmune adrenalitis, which can be confirmed by the presence of 21-hydroxylase-antibodies (Oelkers 1996). When suspected on clinical grounds, adrenal insufficiency has to be confirmed by inappropriately low serum cortisol with elevated adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) (in case of primary adrenal insufficiency).

Adrenal Incidentalomas

Southern Medical Journal, 1998
We describe a case of an adrenal incidentalomas in the setting of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency. The adrenal mass was shown to be a cavernous hemangioma. Such neoplasms are rare but have the risk of retroperitoneal hemorrhage and may be difficult to differentiate from malignant adrenal tumors.
