Bilateral adrenal hemorrhage associated with heparin induced thrombocytopenia.
American Journal of Hematology 2007 June
Heparin induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is associated with serious and sometimes devastating thrombotic events. We report a case of bilateral adrenal hemorrhage (BAH) associated with HIT after prophylactic use of low molecular weight heparin. The vague presenting symptoms of acute adrenal insufficiency offers a diagnostic challenge, which if delayed may be life threatening. A high index of suspicion for adrenal hemorrhage is required in patients receiving any form of heparin therapy presenting with new onset thrombocytopenia, abdominal pain, and fevers.
