Morel-Lavallée lesions (MLLs) are rare closed degloving injuries resulting from significant trauma. These lesions occur when a high-impact force causes separation of the skin and subcutaneous tissue from the underlying fascia, leading to hemolymphatic collections. Despite their clinical significance, MLLs are frequently underdiagnosed, often leading to improper management and recurrence. This case series explores four illustrative cases of MLLs, highlighting the critical role of MRI in accurate diagnosis and staging. Detailed imaging features and optimal treatment options are discussed to guide clinicians in providing the best possible care. By raising awareness and providing a comprehensive understanding of these lesions, this series aims to enhance early detection and appropriate intervention, ultimately improving patient outcomes and reducing the mental distress associated with recurrent lesions.
莫雷尔-拉瓦利损伤(MLLs)是由严重创伤导致的罕见闭合性脱套伤。当高冲击力导致皮肤和皮下组织与深层筋膜分离,进而形成血淋巴液积聚时,就会发生这些损伤。尽管MLLs具有临床意义,但它们常常被漏诊,这往往导致治疗不当和复发。本病例系列探讨了4例具有代表性的MLLs病例,强调了MRI在准确诊断和分期中的关键作用。文中讨论了详细的影像学特征和最佳治疗方案,以指导临床医生提供尽可能好的治疗。通过提高认识并全面了解这些损伤,本系列旨在加强早期检测和适当干预,最终改善患者预后并减轻与复发性损伤相关的精神痛苦。
