Abstract
Addison''s disease in a 7-yr.-old white boy, with prompt and adequate response to adreno-cortical hormone and salt, is presented. The etiology is suggested to be adrenal atrophy resulting from severe illness in the early yrs. of life. An attempt to perform the Cutler-Power-Wilder excretion test resulted in a severe Addisonian crisis.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
