The causes of trauma were motor vehicle accident (8 cases) and fall (3 cases). The majority of injuries occurred on the right side (8 cases), two were on the left side, and one patient had bilateral injury. Three cases presented as isolated adrenal gland injuries, and eight were combined with other internal organ injuries. The most common coinjured organ was the liver, followed by the kidney. The most useful diagnostic modality was computed tomography (CT). Ten cases were treated successfully using conservative management, while one required a left partial adrenalectomy and splenectomy due to active bleeding.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Adrenal injury due to blunt abdominal trauma is extremely rare. The majority of cases can be diagnosed using CT. Most cases involve the right side and can be treated successfully using conservative management. Surgery is required only in cases of active bleeding.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s00268-010-0537-x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,3,29]],"date-time":"2010-03-29T18:30:27Z","timestamp":1269887427000},"page":"1971-1974","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":24,"title":["Adrenal Injury Following Blunt Abdominal Trauma"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"34","author":[{"given":"Yong Sang","family":"Lee","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Gangnam Severance Hospital Yonsei University College of Medicine 712 Eonjuro, Gangnam\u2010gu 135\u2010720 Seoul Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jong Ju","family":"Jeong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Gangnam Severance Hospital Yonsei University College of Medicine 712 Eonjuro, Gangnam\u2010gu 135\u2010720 Seoul Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kee\u2010Hyun","family":"Nam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Gangnam Severance Hospital Yonsei University College of Medicine 712 Eonjuro, Gangnam\u2010gu 135\u2010720 Seoul Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Woong Youn","family":"Chung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Gangnam Severance Hospital Yonsei University College of Medicine 712 Eonjuro, Gangnam\u2010gu 135\u2010720 Seoul Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hang\u2010Seok","family":"Chang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Gangnam Severance Hospital Yonsei University College of Medicine 712 Eonjuro, Gangnam\u2010gu 135\u2010720 Seoul Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Cheong Soo","family":"Park","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Gangnam Severance Hospital Yonsei University College of Medicine 712 Eonjuro, Gangnam\u2010gu 135\u2010720 Seoul Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2010,3,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_5_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2214\/ajr.158.3.1738984"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0887\u20102171(96)90013\u2010X"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10140\u2010006\u20100563\u2010z"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0149\u20107944(02)00796\u20101"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005373\u2010199312000\u201000012"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10140-003-0275-6"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/jcp.8.3.185"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ajcp\/43.3.210"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005373\u2010199508000\u201000032"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005373\u2010200009000\u201000019"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajem.2007.02.024"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005373\u2010199912000\u201000032"}],"container-title":["World Journal of Surgery"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/link.springer.com\/content\/pdf\/10.1007\/s00268-010-0537-x.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/link.springer.com\/article\/10.1007\/s00268-010-0537-x\/fulltext.html","content-type":"text\/html","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1007\/s00268-010-0537-x","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,12,26]],"date-time":"2023-12-26T15:10:29Z","timestamp":1703603429000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1007\/s00268-010-0537-x"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2010,3,30]]},"references-count":12,"journal-issue":{"issue":"8","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2010,8]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1007\/s00268-010-0537-x"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/s00268-010-0537-x","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0364-2313","1432-2323"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0364-2313","type":"print"},{"value":"1432-2323","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2010,3,30]]}}}
