Overview
Common causes of Addison's disease include autoimmune, tuberculosis, AIDS, CMV, hemorrhage, infarction, sarcoidosis and infections.
Causes
Life-threatening Causes
Life-threatening causes of Addison's disease include:
- AIDS complications
- Adrenal infarction
- Bilateral adrenal hemorrhage(caused by trauma, anticoagulant therapy, or coagulation disorders).[1]
- Cancerous destruction of the adrenal gland, secondary to infiltrative or metastatic disease.
- Tubercular and fungal destruction of adrenal glands.
Common Causes
Common causes of Addison's disease include:[2]
Less common causes
Less common causes of Addison's disease include:
- Sarcoidosis
- Amyloidosis
- Fungal infections
- AIDS complications
- Hemochromatosis
- Polyglandular autoimmune syndromes
- Adrenoleukodystrophy
- Adrenomyelodystrophy
- Congenital factors, including hypoplasia, familial glucocorticoid insufficiency, and enzyme defect
