Abstract:
INTRODUCTION:Spontaneous haematoma of the rectus abdominis muscle is an uncommon cause of abdominal pain. It occurs mostly in anticoagulated patients. The objective of this paper is to analyse the onset, diagnosis and treatment in patients under anticoagulant therapy. METHODS:A retrospective analysis of a prospectively maintained database of all patients with a diagnosis of spontaneous hematoma of the abdominal rectus muscle between March 2003 and December 2014. RESULTS:The study included 34 patients, of whom 28 were women, with an average age of 80 years old. All the patients showed a unilateral infraumbilical haematoma. Twenty- 8 patients had received long-term anticoagulant treatment (26 with acenocumarol and 2 low molecular weight heparin); and 6 patients were under anticoagulant prophylaxis with low molecular weight heparin. The diagnosis was performed with ultrasound in 7 cases, computed tomography angiography in 27 patients, and with both methods in 6 cases. The treatment consisted of stopping the anticoagulant drug, correcting haemostasis parameters and blood transfusion when required. Ten patients displayed active bleeding in the computed tomography angiography, and 8 underwent selective arterial embolization. The evolution was successful in 34 patients, however, 2 patients required surgery and, finally, died due to persistent haemorrhage. CONCLUSION:Spontaneous haematoma of the rectus abdominis muscle is more frequent in elderly women under oral anticoagulant treatment. Non-operative treatment is successful in most cases. Computed tomography angiography is useful to determine which patients could benefit from selective arterial embolization.
