Popis:	We present the case report of hematoma in a left parotic lesion in a neurofibromatosis patient.A 17-year-old man with neurofibromatosis VIII was admitted to our hospital. He complained of a soft mass which had been enlarging over the past few hours in a left parotic lesion. Computed tomography showed an enhanced area and aspiration yielded a bloody fluid. Therefore we diagnosed a sudden enlargement of hematoma and we decided to perform an operation to stop the bleeding. Bleeding was seen on the surface of the neurofibroma and we stopped the bleeding with sheets of hemostatic collagen fleece (Avitene sheet®). There has been no rebleeding since the surgery.
