[Spontaneous hematoma of the iliac psoas muscle in chronic myeloid leukemia. A case report].
Spontaneous hematoma in the ilio-psoas muscle is an uncommon condition, usually observed as a complication of anticoagulation or hemophilia. Clinically, the onset is marked by violent pain in the territory of femoral nerve and/or psoitis. The diagnosis is confirmed by echography or CT-scan. The most serious complications are loss of self-sufficiency and neuro-muscular after-effect. Surgery is recommended in patients with neurological suffering, followed by early physiotherapy. We report the case of a 42-year-old man, with an ilio-psoas muscle hematoma, revealing chronic myeloid leukemia, without any hemostasis disorder.
