Reappraisal of Multiple Cutaneous Ecchymotic Signs: Coexistence of Grey Turner Sign, Stable Sign, and Fox Sign in Spontaneous Abdominal Wall Hematoma

An 81-year-old woman presented to our emergency department with sudden onset of right flank bruise and mild abdominal pain. She began to experience marked abdominal distension followed by vigorous vomiting and severe cough 3  days prior. Her medical history showed no pharmacology therapy but an abdominal surgery for uterine myoma about 40 years ago. On arrival she was afebrile and had stable hemodynamic parameters. Blood tests showed normal coagulation profiles and decreased hemoglobin of 10 g/dL, compared to previous value of 13 g/dL.
