Abstract
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons may encounter complications while performing major as well as minor surgical procedures, either intraoperatively or postoperatively. Bleeding after a dental extraction is a frequent complication following surgery. This article discusses an uncommon postoperative complication characterized by prolonged bleeding and the formation of a "liver clot" coagulum, observed 72 hours following the extraction of root stump in an elderly female during a follow-up visit.
