摘要
We report a 10 years old boy, admitted with a history of asthenia, anorexia and weight loss of 4 kg, Initial laboratory work up showed metabolic acidosis and hyponatremia. The patient had no circadian rhythm of serum cortisol and an adrenal stimulation test confirmed the presence of adrenal insufficiency. Anti-adrenal antibodies were positive, Treatment with cortisol and fluorocortisone resulted in a complete remission of symptoms.
