摘要
Bilateral adrenal hemorrhage is a rare cause of primary adrenal insufficiency, and bilateral adrenal hemorrhage due to anticoagulant use is even rarer. We describe the case of a 62-year-old woman receiving post total knee arthroplasty anticoagulant therapy who presented fever, vomitting, stomachache, and severe fatigue on the 8th day. It was until 4 months later that the patient was finally diagnosed with adrenal insufficiency resuting from bilateral adrenal hemorrhage, her symptoms were relieved by glucocorticoid replacement therapy. In order to promote the awareness, diagnosis, and mangement of post-surgery anticoagulants induced bilateral adrenal hemorrhage, the clinical characteristics of the reported cases were summarized and analyzed.
