Adrenal abscess in a preterm neonate with sepsis

<p dir="ltr">The adrenal abscess is a rare complication of adrenal hemorrhage in the neonatal period. Due to its rare occurrence and non-specific signs, diagnosing and treating an adrenal abscess in the neonatal period might be challenging. We present herein a 3-week-old male neonate with an adrenal abscess associated with Escherichia coli sepsis, which was successfully treated by open surgery (using the minimal posterior lumbar approach) following an unsuccessful ultrasound-guided percutaneous drainage.</p><h2>Other Information</h2><p dir="ltr">Published in: Journal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports<br>License: <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" target="_blank">http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a><br>See article on publisher's website: <a href="https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.epsc.2021.102094" target="_blank">https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.epsc.2021.102094</a></p>
