Adrenal hemorrhage is rarely suspected clinically, exhibits no specific clinical symptoms or laboratory findings, and yet is immediately life-threatening when bilateral. Recognition of adrenal hematomas is complicated by the variable appearance of these lesions. We survey the ways in which adrenal hematomas can appear on CT and provide strategies for differentiating hematomas from other adrenal pathologies.

Background: Liver injury manifesting as hepatic enzyme abnormalities, has been occasionally identified to be a feature of primary or secondary Addison's disease, an uncommon endocrine disease characterized by adrenal insufficiency. There have been no more than 30 reported cases of liver injury explicitly attributed to Addison's disease. Liver injury resulting from adrenal insufficiency due to glucocorticoid withdrawal is exceptionally rarer.

Aberrant Cytoplasmic INSM1 Expression in Erythroid Cells: A Potential Diagnostic Pitfall Versus Neuroendocrine Neoplasms.

Insulinoma-associated protein 1 (INSM1) is a relatively new immunostain used in the diagnostic assessment of tumors with neuroendocrine differentiation. While INSM1 positivity has been described in some non-neuroendocrine neoplasms, reactivity in red blood cells (RBCs) has only been anecdotally noted in one prior study without description of the degree/extent of staining. INSM1 staining in nucleated erythroid precursors has not been previously reported.

Adrenal haemorrhage in pregnancy is rare but can lead to significant maternal and foetal morbidity if unrecognised. We present the case of a 25-year-old woman in her second pregnancy, who was admitted at 34+4 weeks of gestation with severe abdominal pain. Despite initial unremarkable assessments, further imaging revealed a left adrenal haemorrhage, with evidence of prior right adrenal infarction, resulting in primary adrenal insufficiency.
