A Rare Case of Upper Calf Swelling and Necrosis - The Morel-Lavallée Lesion.

: A 31-year-old patient presented in the Emergency Department with a tibial fracture following a car accident that crushed the lower third of his thigh and the proximal and median part of his calf. Tibial fracture fixation with an intramedullary rod, was complicated by a Morel-Lavallee lesion. Sequential debridement procedures were performed with partially successful granulation tissue proliferation under NPWT (Negative-Pressure Wound Therapy). To further promote the already delaying granulation, plastic surgeons opted for PRP/PRF (Platelet Rich Plasma/Platelet Rich Fibrin) which allowed appropriate skin grafting. In our opinion, PRP/PRF should be considered as a viable adjuvant therapy to promote granulation.
