Introduction: The Morel-Lavallée lesion is an infrequently described, post-traumatic closed de-gloving wound that results from separation of the skin and subcutaneous tissues from the underlying deep fascia as a result of shearing forces that tear perforating vessels and lymphatics. This condition is rare in children and to our knowledge it represents the youngest case of Morel-Lavallée lesion yet reported.
Presentation Of Case: We report on a twelve-month-old girl who presented after a motor vehicle accident with a tender fluctuant mass of the back and buttocks.
