Spontaneous Submental hematoma, a Pseudo-Ludwig’s phenomenon in 101-year-old patient: case report and literature review

Highlights • Submental hematoma is a rare entity and physician should rule out other potential deferential diagnoses including angioedema, arteriovenous malformation (AVM), pseudoaneurysm, or cavernous hemangioma. • It can occur in any age group even as old as 101 year. • Always act proactive to secure the airway, preferably conservatively and electively early in presentation to avoid complications with acute/emergent interventions.
