a rare case of severe third degree Friction Burns and large morel lavallee lesion of the abdominal wall
Burns & Trauma, 2018Co-Authors: D J Brown, K Chang, J Levin, John T Schulz, Jeremy GovermanAbstract:Morel-Lavallee lesions (MLLs) are rare internal degloving injuries typically caused by blunt traumatic injuries and most commonly occur around the hips and in association with pelvic or acetabular fractures. MLL is often overlooked in the setting of poly-trauma; therefore, clinicians must maintain a high degree of suspicion and be familiar with the management of such injuries, especially in obese poly-trauma patients. We present a 30-year-old female pedestrian struck by a motor vehicle who sustained multiple long bone fractures, a mesenteric hematoma, and full-thickness abdominal skin Friction Burn which masked a significant underlying abdominal MLL. The internal degloving caused significant devascularization of the overlying soft tissue and skin which required surgical drainage of hematoma, abdominal wall reconstruction with tangential excision, allografting, negative pressure wound therapy, and ultimately autografting. MLL is a rare, often overlooked, internal degloving injury. Surgeons must maintain a high index of suspicion when dealing with third degree Friction Burns as they may mask underlying injuries such as MLL, and a delay in diagnosis can lead to increased morbidity.

morel lavallee lesion with Friction Burn management using veraflo vac dressing preserving body contour
Plastic and reconstructive surgery. Global open, 2020Co-Authors: Sigrid A BlomeeberweinAbstract:While the standard of care for subcutaneous degloving injuries (Morel Lavallee lesion) in conjunction with Friction Burns is drainage, wide excision and grafting, this case was treated with drainage and continuous lavage with the help of the noncompressible Veraflo Vac dressing. This led to rapid reattachment of the tissues and preservation of body contour long term.
