Abstract

Thomboembolic events are relatively common among elderly with restricted mobility. These adversities include deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism that require anticoagulants as the mainstay of treatment. The elderly are not only at higher risk of thromboembolism, but also have a higher haemorrhagic complication especially among chronic kidney disease. Physicians should be cautious of haematoma formation if they present with sudden onset of painful breast swelling. We describe a rare case of an elderly with underlying chronic kidney disease who developed spontaneous right breast haematoma after taking low molecular weight heparin for her recently diagnosed pulmonary embolism.

Özet

Thomboembolik olaylar, hareketliliğin sınırlı olduğu yaşlılarda nispeten sıktır. Bu olumsuzluklara, derin ven trombozu ve pulmoner emboli gibi tedavinin başlangıcında pıhtılaşma önleyici ilaçların gerekli olduğu hastalıklar dahildir. Yaşlılarda, sadece tromboembolizm riski yüksek değildir, aynı zamanda özellikle kronik böbrek hastalığı açısından yüksek hemorajik komplikasyonlara da sahiptirler. Hekimler, ani başlangıçlı meme büyümesi ile karşı karşıya kaldıklarında hematom oluşumuna karşı dikkatli olmalılardır. Bu olgu sunumunda; altta kronik böbrek hastalığı yatan yaşlı bir hastada yakın zamanda tanısı konmuş olan pulmoner emboli tedavisi için düşük moleküler ağırlıklı heparin kullandıktan sonra gelişen spontan sağ meme hematomunu sunuyoruz.
