This middle aged male had a history of trauma to forearm.
Even after 2.5 months, there was a persistent swelling.
Ultrasound confirmed presence of mass like hypoechoic lesion in subcutaneous plane of forearm.
Ultrasound images below suggest a chronic hematoma. Color Doppler shows absent vascularity ruling out a neoplasm.

Final diagnosis: chronic soft tissue hematoma of forearm.
