Abstract:
Traumatic hemorrhage into the thyroid gland is rarely reported. We report the case of a 30-year-old man who sustained blunt trauma to his neck, resulting in hemorrhage into a previously existing goiter. The patient's goiter was drained in the hospital. He was doing well at a three-month follow-up.
