Article Synopsis
- Adrenal necrosis during pregnancy is a rare but serious condition that can cause severe abdominal pain due to blood clots, often leading to delayed diagnosis and treatment.
- The study aimed to identify specific clinical and paraclinical signs of adrenal necrosis to improve diagnostic timing and establish a management protocol involving a multidisciplinary approach.
- Eight case studies of pregnant women diagnosed with adrenal necrosis via CT scans were analyzed, revealing common symptoms, and treatment involving anticoagulation for three to six months is recommended, along with assessments for potential adrenal insufficiency.
