Abstract:
Intradiploic hematomas occur rarely. They have been reported in patients with and without coagulation disorders. The presentation of intradiploic hematomas varies depending on their location and the severity of the coagulopathy. We describe a patient with a huge hemicranial chronic intradiploic hematoma. Surgery involved opening the thinned outer table and evacuation of a jelly-like material and an organized clot, leaving behind the inner table. The rarity of this disease, possible pathogenesis and related surgical aspects are discussed.

Disorders of Hemostasis
Thromboembolic Disorders
Two factors primarily cause thromboembolic conditions.
Extrinsic and Intrinsic Pathways of Hemostasis
The Extrinsic Pathway
The extrinsic pathway of coagulation is typically initiated by tissue damage that exposes blood to tissue factor (TF), a protein released by the damaged tissue cells outside the blood vessels—this interaction with TF triggers biochemical reactions involving specific clotting factors. The key player here is Factor VII, which forms a...
Introduction to Hemostasis
The three phases of hemostasis involve many clotting factors present in plasma and several substances released by platelets and injured tissue cells. It is a fast, localized, and...
