[Necrosis of the galea as rare complication of infection of a traumatic temporal hematoma].
Authors report a case of infective traumatic temporal haematoma causing septic focus. The suppurative inflammation developed two weeks after the trauma causing necrosis of an extensive part of the galea on a big area of the crown of head. A septic process increased producing necrotic alteration of the affected periosteum of the cranial bone and plegmon in the tissue of the neck. Authors report the surgical plastic procedures that were used to establish a granulating layer and to cover the surface in the area of the removed necrotic part of the galea. Authors emphasize the significance of the danger of the inflammatory infiltration and report the effect of the Curiosin solution on the wound-healing.
