Cerebral Hemorrhage after Cosmetic Facial Injection.

Cosmetic facial injection is a mini-invasive surgical procedure and is widely used at present. Meanwhile, it may also cause severe complications like cerebrovascular infarction occasionally. A 49-year-old female patient presented to a local hospital with dysphoria, left eye and head ache, unconsciousness, orthocolosis, right upper extremity hemiplegic paralysis, and emesia after receiving facial injection of hyaluronic acid into the glabella. Low molecular weight heparin and clopidogrel were used to treat the patient, but there was no relief of symptoms. The patient gradually developed coma and was transferred to our hospital. Brain computed tomography showed mixed density in left temporal lobe, multiple high density in left frontal temporal parietal lobe and sulcus, and subarachnoid hemorrhage and high density in brainstem. The patient was diagnosed with cerebral hematoma and hernia, who gradually developed respiratory and circulatory failure and eventually died.
