Abstract: | The endocrine system may be the target of different types of trauma with varied consequences. The present article discusses trauma of the hypothalamic–pituitary axes, adrenal glands, gonads, and pancreas. In addition to changes in circulating hormone levels due to direct injury to these structures, there may be an endocrine response in the context of the stress caused by the trauma. |
