Insights
Recurrent Desmoid-related Hematoma (DH) after Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is rare. This case highlights a child with a previously repaired DH who presented with sepsis and abdominal swelling over two years later.
Area of Science:
- Medicine
- Oncology
- Regenerative Medicine
Background:
- Desmoid-related Hematoma (DH) is a recognized complication of Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP) therapy.
- Recurrent DH following PRP treatment has not been previously documented in medical literature.
Abstract:
DH is a rare but well-recognized complication of PLT. However, a recurrent DH in the setting of PLT has not been reported. We report the case of a child who had previously undergone a DH repair early after PLT and presented more than two years later with atypical findings of severe sepsis and a tender abdominal swelling.
