Abstract

Warfarin, a vitamin K antagonist, is currently used for prophylaxis and treatment of many pathological conditions such as; valvular heart diseases, atrial fibrillation, deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolus, myocardial infarction, and orthopedic surgery. The most important and dreadful complications are bleedings in organs and tissues which can also involve intramuscular locations. We present a case of spontaneous hematoma formation in serratus anterior muscle which was not related to prior trauma.

Özet

Vitamin K antagonisti olan warfarin; valvüler kalp hastalığı, atriyal fibrilasyon, derin ven trombozu, pulmoner emboli, ortopedik cerrahi, miyokard enfarktüsü gibi çeşitli patolojik durumlarda profilaksi ve tedavi amacıyla kullanılmaktadır. Warfarin tedavisi alan hastalarda gelişebilecek en ciddi yan etki organ ve dokularda oluşabilecek kanamalardır. Kanama kas içi hematom şeklinde de kendini gösterebilir. Biz bu vaka sunumunda travmayla ilişkisiz, spontan olarak serratus anterior kası içinde oluşan bir hematom vakasını sunuyoruz.
