The Morel-Lavallée lesion is an internal degloving injury seen after a traumatic force. These lesions are frequently missed on initial presentation, leading to a delay in diagnosis and increased morbidity. We present a case of a 52-year-old male who suffered an injury to his right thigh and was ultimately diagnosed with a Morel-Lavallée lesion after the third emergency department visit. Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) assisted with making the diagnosis and expediting proper care.
莫雷尔-拉瓦利损伤是一种外力作用后出现的内部脱套伤。这些损伤在初次就诊时常常被漏诊，导致诊断延迟和发病率增加。我们报告一例52岁男性，其右大腿受伤，在第三次急诊就诊后最终被诊断为莫雷尔-拉瓦利损伤。床旁超声（POCUS）有助于做出诊断并加快适当治疗。
