Hi colleagues,
I'm a bit stuck on the following. The sentence is as follows: Diffuus hematoom rond pacemaker pocket, pocket zelf niet gebombeerd.
This patient went to the ER because of chest pain after getting a pacemaker implanted the same day. Not sure what to make of 'gebombeerd' in this context.
Any help would be appreciated.

An unexpected cause of a swollen pacemaker pocket: a case report

Subsequent outpatient visits showed complete resolution of the pocket swelling with no change in pacemaker function and lead thresholds.

: 'swollen' would be okay, not swelling: ... 'pocket itself is not swollen.'

Reference:
uitpuilen, opgezet zijn
Ik vind het niet in de context van het hart of pacemakers, wel in combinatie met de fontanel en het trommelvlies.
Example sentence:
Stase van ontstekingsexsudaat veroorzaakt uitpuilen van het trommelvlies (bomberen) en pijn.
