title: [Surgical diseases of the adrenal glands in childhood--pediatric aspects].
abstract: Detailed discussion of diseases of the adrenals in children where surgery may be indicated, seen from the paediatric point of view. Following differentiation between adrenal insufficiency and adrenal hyperfunction, as well as adrenal haemorrhage--where differential diagnosis is often rather difficult--the tumours of the zona glomerulosa, fasciculata and reticularis as well as of the adrenal medulla are presented and their signs and symptoms, their clinical hormonal diagnosis, localisation diagnosis and therapy are described.
