Abstract

Adrenal gland trauma is uncommon and is diagnosed at an increasing frequency using CT scans. However, owing to the rarity of this injury and its diverse clinical presentations and prognoses, there is no consensus on its management. In this case report, a 73-year-old male patient experienced recurrent bleeding in the right adrenal gland due to an in-car traffic accident, which was treated with repeated transcatheter arterial embolization.
