Definition

Damage to tissue of organs as a result of a blunt trauma. There is at first no visible damage to the traumatised structure, but injury to the underlying blood vessels can lead to a localised haematoma or oedema of the affected (swelling and reddish discolouration)

Translations :

contusion , f

Commotion d'un organe ou d'une partie du corps sans lésion visible de la peau suite à une violence extérieure directe; il s'ensuit un œdème des tissus et un saignement des vaisseaux sanguins avoisinants, parfois visible (hématome).
