Abstract:
Isolated adrenal gland injuries have rarely been reported, but can be potentially devastating if unrecognized. Herein, we describe a case of an isolated adrenal gland injury following a motor vehicle accident. Under the diagnosis of an isolated adrenal injury without visceral organ injury by abdominopelvic CT, conservative management led to a favorable outcome.
