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 Hypoaldosteronism and Addison's disease include:[2]

Less common causes

Less common causes of Addison's disease include:

  • Sarcoidosis
  • Amyloidosis
  • Fungal infections
  • AIDS complications
  • Hemochromatosis
  • Polyglandular endocrine syndromes
  • Adrenoleukodystrophy
  • Adrenomyelodystrophy
  • Congenital factors, including hypoplasia, familial glucocorticoid insufficiency, and enzyme defect

Drugs causing hypoaldosteronism

Other less common causes of hypoaldosteronism include drugs such as:[3][4][5][6]

Decreased renin release Inhibition of

aldosterone synthase

Decreased production

of aldosterone

Decreased effect of

aldosterone

Drugs that impair

adrenal function

Direct inhibition

of zona glomerulosa

Dopaminergic agonists

Less common causes of disease name include:

  • [cause1]
  • [cause2]
  • [cause3]

Genetic Causes

  • [Disease name] is caused by a mutation in the [gene name] gene.
