Waterhouse-Friderichsen syndrome is a rare but potentially fatal disorder of the adrenal gland characterized by bilateral adrenal hemorrhage. It is classically a result of meningococcal sepsis and presents acutely with features of shock, petechial rashes, abdominal pain, and non-specific symptoms such as headache, fatigue, and vomiting. Treatment consists of fluid resuscitation, corticosteroid replacement, and possibly surgery. The prognosis is poor despite treatment. This chapter will review the etiology, pathogenesis, clinical features, and management of the disease.
期刊介绍:
First published in 1943, Vitamins and Hormones is the longest-running serial published by Academic Press. In the early days of the serial, the subjects of vitamins and hormones were quite distinct. The Editorial Board now reflects expertise in the field of hormone action, vitamin action, X-ray crystal structure, physiology, and enzyme mechanisms. Vitamins and Hormones continues to publish cutting-edge reviews of interest to endocrinologists, biochemists, nutritionists, pharmacologists, cell biologists, and molecular biologists. Others interested in the structure and function of biologically active molecules like hormones and vitamins will, as always, turn to this series for comprehensive reviews by leading contributors to this and related disciplines.
