title: Parotid gland hemorrhage as a complication of coumarin compound ingestion.
abstract: Bleeding in the salivary glands represents a very rare complication of oral anticoagulant therapy. Only one such case has been previously described in the submandibular glands. To the best of our knowledge, we document the first case of hemorrhage in the parotid gland following the ingestion of coumarin compounds.
