title: Severe haematoma of the vulva--a report of two cases and a clinical review.
abstract: Haematoma of the vulva may occur following blunt trauma due to its highly vascular structure. We present two cases of haematoma of the vulva caused by domestic violence, following a kick on the perineum and falling astride on the perineum. Evacuation of the haematoma and repair of lacerated tissues were successfully performed.
