Concomitant ulnar and median nerve entrapment due to spontaneous hematomas at humerus mid-shaft under warfarin treatment: Case report
Öz: Warfarin tromboembolik olayların hem önlenmesinde hem de tedavisinde etkindir, fakat kanama bu tedavinin kısmen yaygın bir komplikasyonudur ve bazen ciddi komplikasyonlara yol açabilmektedir. Hematoma bağlı gelişen nöropati kavramı ilk kez antikoagülan ilaçların daha yaygın olarak kullanılmaya başlandığı 1960 ortalarında tanımlanmıştır. Literatüre göre bu komplikasyon daha çok alt ekstremite sinirlerini etkilemektedir. Bu yazıda warfarin tedavisi almakta olan 74 yaşındaki bir erkek hastada humerus orta kısmında spontan olarak gelişen, ulnar ve median sinir hasarına neden olan iki tane yakın lokalizasyonlu hematomun geliştiği bir olgu sunulmaktadır. Hasta sadece konservatif metotlarla tedavi edildi, takiplerinde radyolojik olarak hematomun tam olarak rezorbe olduğu tespit edildi ve hastanın klinik olarak anlamlı iyileşme gösterdiği belirlendi.

Warfarin tedavisi alan hastada humerus orta kısmında spontan gelişen hematomlara bağlı ulnar ve median sinir tuzaklanması: Olgu sunumu
Öz: Warfarin is an effective therapy for both the treatment and the prevention of thromboembolic events, but bleeding is a relatively common complication of this treatment, and sometimes it leads to serious complications. Compressive neuropathies from hematomas were first described in the mid-1960s as treatment with anticoagulation drugs became more widely utilized. Literature shows that this complication effects more frequently lower nerves. In this study, we are reporting a 74 year-old man using warfarin treatment with two hematomas at right humerus mid-shaft which occurred spontaneously and led to ulnar and median nerve injury concomitantly. Patient was treated only conservatively. Hematomas resorbed completely at the following radiological images, and we observed clinically acceptable healing.
