Abstract
Uncontrolled use of anticoagulants may cause bleeding. Warfarin-dependent spontaneous intramural hematoma of the small intestine is a rare complication. Although warfarin using patients with abdominal pain were usually treated medically, surgical interventions should be considered in selected cases with intestinal intramural hematoma. Here we present a patient who was treated surgically to bring to mind this rare condition.
