Warfarin-induced skin necrosis is an infrequent complication occurring in individuals under warfarin treatment who have a thrombophilic history or after administration of large loading doses of warfarin particularly without simultaneous initial use of heparin. A 62-year-old lady developed skin necrosis 4 days after initiating warfarin therapy of 5 mg daily without initial co-administration of h...

Skin necrosis is a rare complication of warfarin therapy that occurs between the third and 10th days of treatment.

The condition most commonly involves skin areas with abundant subcutaneous adipose tissue such as the breasts, buttocks, abdomen, thighs, and the extremities. W...
متن کاملLate-onset Warfarin Induced Skin Necrosis: In a Hemodialysis Patient
Chronic dialysis patients frequently present with necrotic skin lesions. The differential diagnoses are broad and complex. The main focus of this paper is differentiating features of two diagnostic entities: Warfarin induced skin necrosis and calciphylaxis as early recognition and treatment may prevent the significant mortality. We discuss a case involving a hemodialysis patient, who developed ...
متن کاملWarfarin-induced skin necrosis following heparin-induced thrombocytopenia.
Anticoagulants, such as heparin and warfarin, are commonly used in the treatment and prevention of thromboembolic events. The risk of developing warfarin-induced skin necrosis (WISN) with warfarin is reported to be <1%. However, the risk of WISN may be increased with the initiation of warfarin in the setting of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia and thrombosis syndrome (HITT). WISN can lead to ca...
