Non-functioning kidney associated with neonatal adrenal hemorrhage. Report of 2 cases.
Two neonates, with a palpable mass in the loin, turned out to have adrenal hemorrhage. Both of them had also hypertension and a poorly functioning or non-functioning kidney on the same side. Surgery in one of them reverted blood pressure to normal. The cause for hypertension is discussed.
