“…The development of haematoma in muscle and soft tissue after trauma is among the expected conditions [10]. There are several case reports in the literature conducted on development of spontaneous haematoma in patients who take coumadin [11]. Although the use of new-generation oral anticoagulants like rivaroxaban is increasing, studies on their toxic effects are limited in the literature [12].…”

Most of the muscle pathologies consist of traumas. The use of oral anticoagulants increases post-traumatic bleeding and haematoma risk. Ultrasonography has an important place in diagnostic examination of the soft tissue haematomas that appear in post-traumatic period. In this study a patient is presented who used warfarin and was admitted at the emergency department with hip pain and difficulty in walking, and who had gluteal haematoma on ultrasound after falling down. Hip pains in patients using warfarin must be alarming in terms of gluteal haematoma. Ultrasound offers fast and reliable results in preventing complications.

Colonoscopy is a safe and extremely popular diagnostic and therapeutic procedure. The most common complications are bleeding and perforation. Hemoperitoneum is a rare complication after a colonoscopy and is usually associated with splenic injury or solid organ pathology. This is potentially serious and can be life threatening. With the increasing number of colonoscopies performed, there has also been an increasing trend in reports of rare complications, such as pneumothorax, pneumomediastinum, appendicitis, small bowel perforation, septicemia, mesenteric tear, retroperitoneal abscess, and hemoperitoneum. This paper reports a unique case of hemoperitoneum after a recent colonoscopy without a splenic rupture or intra-abdominal abnormality, or external trauma. Most hemoperitoneum occurs within 48 hours after the inciting colonoscopy. In the present case, however, hemoperitoneum appeared 10 days after the colonoscopy. This case emphasizes that physicians should consider hemoperitoneum in a differential diagnosis of abdominal pain in patients after colonoscopy.
