[A case of upper gastrointestinal system obstruction by duodenal intramural hematoma caused by using an oral anticoagulant drug].
Unwanted haemorrhage can be seen due to long-term oral anticoagulant use. Sometimes these may lead obstructions forming intramural haemotomas. We noticed a case of duodenal obstruction due to an intramural hematoma in a patient who is on chronic oral anticoagulant therapy. In Taksim Hospital 1st General Surgery Department in April 2000, we treated a patient who presented anaemia, jaundice, pyloric obstruction conservatively. As a result we implicated to treat such cases nonoperatively.
