Abstract
Thyroid hemorrhage as a result of blunt trauma is a very rare condition. The choice between surgery/conservative management might be tailored over patient's health conditions. This report describes a case of neck blunt trauma causing acute thyroid hemorrhage treated first conservatively and further surgically due to a persistent dyspnea for tracheal compression.Entities:
