title: [Intestinal occlusion caused by an intramural ileo-cecal-colonic hematoma during treatment with oral anticoagulants].
abstract: The Authors report a case of bowel occlusion due to intramural ileocecocolic haematoma in a patient in treatment with oral anticoagulants. This case is interesting both to unusual etiology correlated to the localization and because there are many concomitant pathogenetic factors; this case was treated on urgency by bowel resection and it had a good prognosis. The Authors discuss the diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties and conclude that in patients with anticoagulant oral therapy an accurate clinical follow-up is required.
