%X Closed degloving injuries are often overlooked in the acute setting and may not be apparent until later presentation as an evolving contour deformity.1 Trauma with an oblique shearing force can avulse skin and subcutaneous tissues from the underlying fascia, creating a potential space for seroma accumulation, and subsequent Morel-Lavall¨Ĥe lesion. Morel-Lavall¨Ĥe first described posttraumatic seroma in 1853, reporting several patients who sustained traumatic injuries of the lumbosacral region, buttocks, and thigh.
