We present a case of fat necrosis in the thigh of a ten year old girl, resulting in unusual multiple, ovoid filling defects seen in the residual cavity following drainage of a subcutaneous haematoma. No similar cases have been found on review of the literature. The appearance is described to aid diagnosis at the time of initial cavity drainage, avoiding the need for further investigation.
