[Differential "adrenal gland tumor-adrenal gland hemorrhage" diagnosis. A sonographic follow-up].

A case report with typical sonographic follow-up findings of adrenal hemorrhage in neonates is presented. The most important follow-up criteria to differentiate adrenal malignoma from hemorrhage sonographically are significant reduction of size, loss of echogenity as well as formation of a capsula within the first 10 days of life. Otherwise - even with insignificant laboratory findings - malignoma, especially congenital neuroblastoma, has to be suspected.
