Hematoma: An abnormal localized collection of blood in which the blood is usually clotted or partially clotted and is usually situated within an organ or a soft tissue space, such as within a muscle.
A hematoma is caused by a break in the wall of a blood vessel. The break may be spontaneous, as in the case of an aneurysm , or caused by trauma .
The treatment depends on the location and size of the hematoma, but can involves draining the accumulated blood. A hematoma in or near the brain is particularly dangerous.
The word "hematoma" came into usage around 1850. It was devised from Greek roots -- hemat-, referring to the blood + -oma, from soma meaning body = a bloody body, or a collection of blood.
The many different kinds of hematomas are defined by location and include: - epidural hematoma ,
- extradural hematoma ,
- intracerebral hematoma ,
- intracranial hematoma ,
- nasal septum hematoma ,
- subcutaneous hematoma ,
- subdural hematoma .
