Antifosfolipid antikor ilişkili adrenal hemorajiye bağlı gelişen akut adrenal yetmezlik
Antifosfolipid antikor (AFA) varlığında arteriyel ya da venöz tromboz görülebilir. Antifosfolipid sendromunda görülen tromboza yönelik değişik patogenetik mekanizmalar ileri sürülmüştür. Burada 62 yaşında AFA'nın eşlik ettiği adrenal hemorajiye bağlı adrenal yetmezlik vakası sunulmaktadır. AFA sendromlarında daha sık görülen pulmoner emboli ve derin ven trombozunun yanı sıra adrenal venlerde de trombotik sürecin olabileceği akılda tutulmalıdır.
Antiphospholipid antibody associated adrenal hemorrhage causing acute adrenal insufficiency
Arterial or venous thrombosis can be seen in the presence of antiphospholipid antibody. Various pathogenetic mechanisms are put forward in case of antiphospholipid syndrome. Herein a case of 62-year-old male patient who developed adrenal hemorrhage leading to adrenal insufficiency was presented. It should be kept in mind that thrombotic process of antiphospholipid syndrome could be seen in adrenal veins in addition to pulmonary and deep vein thrombosis.
