Abstract

Small bowel obstruction due to intramural hematoma secondary to anticoagulant therapy is a rare complication. Other risk factors include hemophilia, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma, chemotherapy, vasculitis, pancreatitis, and pancreatic cancer. The presentation of patients is usually with abdominal pain, nause and vomiting. The patients who were admitted to the emergency clinic with acute abdominal pain and had a history of anticoagulant use with prolonged international normalized ratios should alert to search for intraabdominal hematoma. Herein, we present a patient who was admitted to the emergency clinic with acute abdominal pain, severe nausea and vomiting, and diagnosed by abdominal computed tomography.

Abstract

Spontan intramural hematoma sekonder gelişen intestinal obstrüksiyon, antikoagülan tedavinin nadir bir komplikasyonudur. Diğer nedenler hemofili, idiopatik trombositopenik purpura, lösemi, lenfoma, myeloma, kemoterapi, vaskülit, pankreatit ve pankreas kanseri gibi hastalıklardır. Hastalar genellikle karın ağrısı şikayeti ile başvururlar, bulantı ve kusma sık eşlik eden diğer bulgulardır. Karın ağrısı ile başvuran hastada antikoagülan kullanım öyküsü ve kanama-pıhtılaşma zamanında uzama varsa intraabdominal kanama olabileceği akılda tutulmalı ve erken tanı amaçlı abdomen bilgisayarlı tomografi (BT) tetkiki yapılmalıdır. Bu yazıda warfarin kullanan ve akut karın ağrısı, şiddetli bulantı-kusma ile acil servise başvuran abdomen BT tetkikinde mide antrum ve duodenumda hematoma sekonder total obstrüksiyon saptanan olgu sunulacaktır.
