Abstract

Rectus sheath hematoma is a rarely seen entity often misdiagnosed as acute abdomen. Prompt history with careful physical examination and appropriate imaging studies help the correct diagnosis avoiding unnecessary laparotomies. In this article, we report a 67-year-oldmale patient on oral anticoagulant therapy due to mitral valve replacement who developed rectus sheath hematoma.

Özet

Rektus kılıf hematomu nadir görülen ancak akut batın ile karıştırılabilen bir klinik durumdur. Hızlı şekilde öykü alınması ve beraberinde dikkatli bir fizik muayene ve uygun görüntüleme çalışmalarının gerçekleştirilmesi doğru tanı konulmasına ve dolayısıyla gereksiz laparotomilerin önlenmesine yardımcı olacaktır. Bu yazıda mitral kapak replasmanı nedeniyle oral antikoagülan tedavisi gören ve rektus kılıfı hematomu gelişen 67 yaşında bir erkek hasta sunuldu.
