Abstrakt: | Spontaneous calf haematoma is a rare condition and few case reports have been published in the English literature.

Ultrasound and Magnetic Resonance Imaging are essential for confirmation of diagnosis. The purpose of this paper is to report on a rare case of spontaneous calf hematoma and its diagnosis and management. |
