Posttraumatic adrenal hemorrhage is often seen after severe abdominal trauma. Mild adrenal gland enlargement on CT scans may signal impending hemorrhage, especially in follow-up studies.

Area of Science:

  • Radiology
  • Trauma Surgery
  • Endocrinology

Background:

  • Posttraumatic adrenal hemorrhage is a common finding following severe abdominal trauma.
  • Bilateral adrenal hemorrhage can lead to significant clinical complications.
  • Helical CT is increasingly utilized for trauma patient evaluation, enhancing diagnosis of adrenal hematomas.

Observation:

  • This study presents computed tomography (CT) findings of a unilateral posttraumatic adrenal hemorrhage.
  • Diagnostic indicators for the hemorrhage were only apparent in a follow-up imaging study.
  • A case of unilateral posttraumatic adrenal hemorrhage is detailed, highlighting delayed CT findings.

Findings:

  • Mild enlargement of the adrenal gland in trauma patients may represent an early indicator of developing adrenal hemorrhage.

  • Delayed diagnosis of posttraumatic adrenal hemorrhage is possible, as demonstrated by the presented CT findings.
  • Unilateral posttraumatic adrenal hemorrhage diagnosis can be subtle and may require serial imaging.

    • Implications:

    • Recognizing mild adrenal enlargement on follow-up CT scans could improve early detection of posttraumatic adrenal hemorrhage.
    • Prompt diagnosis and management of adrenal hemorrhage are crucial, particularly in cases with potential for bilateral involvement.
    • This finding emphasizes the importance of serial imaging in trauma patients with suspected adrenal injury.
