Ultrasound examination revealed a polycystic hematoma in the forearm flexors (long axis section of the hematoma; (A). The hematoma was located between the median nerve (*), and radius-ulna (short axis section of the hematoma; (B). Three days after drainage and urokinase lavage, ultrasonography showed that the hematoma nearly disappeared (C). Hematoma did not recur at the 4-month follow-up after treatment (D).

CEUS was performed after injecting a 2.4 ml bolus of contrast agent (SonoVue, Bracco Diagnostic Inc.) into the elbow vein, but the no-enhanced area was found inside the hematoma (Supplementary Figure S2). No recurrence of muscular hematoma was observed after four months (Figure 2).
