Abstract

Trauma is one of the leading causes of death and maxillofacial injuries are more common in Road traffic accident. Post traumatic hematoma is more common and a self limiting one. Hematoma in maxillofacial injury following an RTA is usually associated with fracture of facial bones. It occurs mainly due to breach in periosteum and osseous bleeding from fractured bone segments. Here we present a case report of expanding post traumatic hematoma following RTA with no associated fractures and its management.
