Abstract:
Objective To investigate the ultrasonographic character of neonatal adrenal hemorrhage (NAH). Methods Forty-four hospitalized NAH were retrospectively analyzed. Doppler ultrasonography detected their shape and supply. Results Forty-one cases were diagnosed by ultrasonography in 44 cases of NAH,3 cases were misdiagnosed, accompanying with scrotal hematoma in 5 cases. Ultrasonography demonstrated mixed, anechoic, hyperechoic, hypoechoic adrenal mass, no color Doppler signal in all of NAH. Conclusions NAH can be diagnosed by color Doppler ultrasound in early stage and it is the first choice method.
