Özet
In this case report, we would like to present a 36-year-old male patient injured in a street fight without any disease previously known, who was accepted to our intensive care unit with the preliminary diagnoses of minimal cerebral contusion and aspiration pneumonia however by the physical examination, clinical and laboratory findings, was diagnosed as thyroid storm due to trauma. In the current literature, only a few cases reported showing thyroid storm-induced by trauma, and we would like to present the clinical features and management of this life-threatening endocrinological emergency. © 2014 TJTES.
