Özet
Warfarin is an effective anticoagulant which is used for the prevention of arterial and venous thrombosis. Currently, this type of oral anticoagulant drugs are often used with various indications and rarely leads life-threatening bleeding. Although bleeding into the gastrocnemius muscle, is usually associated with trauma, it may very rarely result from warfarin overdose. In this article, we report a-41-year-old female case with hematoma in the gastrocnemius muscle due to low doses (i.e. 1.25 mg) of warfarin every other. day.
