Abstract
Case:
Occasionally, a large, deep, consolidated hematoma is hard to evacuate without an incision, yet there are concerns about possible complications of surgical removal. We present a case of a 21-year-old military recruit with a large submuscular buttock hematoma that was successfully treated with an ultrasound-guided suction technique under local anesthesia using only a stab incision.
Conclusions:
The ultrasound-guided suction technique for a large hematoma was safe and effective in this patient.
