Adrenal haemorrhage is a rare condition that has the potential to cause life-threatening adrenal insufficiency, especially if it affects both the adrenal glands. The difficulty in diagnosing adrenal haemorrhages lies in the non-specific clinical presentation including hypotension and abdominal pain. The following case report demonstrates the possible clinical presentations of non-traumatic adrenal haemorrhages and the method of diagnosing and treating adrenal insufficiency. In a medical era where overdiagnosis and "incidentalomas" are becoming more prevalent, this case nicely demonstrates the fortunate use of imaging to detect a potentially life-threatening condition.
