Giriş: Addison hastalığı adrenal bez hormon üretiminde eksiklikler sonucu görülen, nadir ancak tedavisiz bırakıldığı takdirde
ölümcül olabilen bir hastalıktır. Bu yazıda, 21 yaşında başağrısı ve
halsizlik şikayeti ile acil servise başvuran ve sonrasında Addison
hastalığı tanısı konulan bir hasta sunuldu.
Olgu Sunumu: Hastanın ilk muayenesinde vital bulguları stabil ve
hayati tehdit oluşturan bir semptomu bulunmamaktaydı. Hastanın takipleri esnasında gelişen kalp ve solunum durması başarılı
bir şekilde yönetildi ve elektrolit bozukluğu düzeltildi.
Sonuç: Addison hastalığı halsizlik şikayeti ile başvuran ve elektrolit bozukluğu bulunan hastaların ayırıcı tanısında düşünülmelidir.
