Article Synopsis
- Spontaneous cervical hematoma often arises from bleeding in or around the parathyroid gland, typically linked to conditions like giant adenomas or hyperplasia, and can lead to severe complications if it compresses the airway.
- For stable patients, treatment generally includes monitoring and possible delayed surgery, while those with airway issues require urgent surgical intervention.
- The case study discusses a 78-year-old patient with multiple health issues who experienced neck pain and respiratory problems due to a spontaneous cervical hematoma from a giant parathyroid adenoma, resulting in complicated post-operative recovery.
