The Sonographic Diagnosis of Neonatal Adrenal Hemorrhage

Abstract
Neonatal [human] adrenal hemorrhage can be diagnosed with a combination of ultrasound and excretory urography without resorting to surgical exploration or invasive diagnostic procedures. The radiologic findings of adrenal hemorrhage on excretory urography included downward displacement of the kidney on the affected side and a radiolucent suprarenal mass on the body nephrogram phase. Ultrasound studies revealed a sonolucent suprarenal mass. Four cases of varying degrees of adrenal hemorrhage are presented together with the radiographic and sonographic findings.
