description | Anticoagulation therapy is essential after cardiac valve surgery. However, spontaneous bleeding remains a major
concern during anticoagulation therapy. Spontaneous gallbladder (GB) hemorrhage (hemobilia) is a rare occurrence
during standard anticoagulation therapy. This report presents a case of GB hemorrhage that occurred shortly after
initiating oral anticoagulant therapy in a patient who had undergone mitral valve replacement surgery. |
