👉 Empyocele is a medical condition in which there is no blood supply to an organ or tissue. It can occur when the blood vessels that support an organ are blocked or damaged, causing fluid to build up and causing swelling. The symptoms of an empyocele may include increased pain, discomfort, bruising, and swelling. Treatment for empyocele usually involves drainage or removal of the excess fluid through a small incision in the skin.
