Adrenal insufficiency possibly due to lipoid adrenal hyperplasia: a case report

An infant who presented with adrenal insufficiency possibly due to lipoid adrenal hyperplasia at the age of 66 days is described. This is the first time that this very rare disorder is reported from Saudi Arabia. Adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) stimulation test is useful in the ante-mortem diagnosis of this condition.
