Resumo: New generation oral anticoagulants — rivaroxaban, apixaban and edoxaban — represent an important medical achievement. Their therapeutic effectiveness and ease of use make them essential in the management of thromboembolic conditions. However, as warfarin, they have known haemorrhagic risks. This paper reports the case of a 50-year-old female who presented with ear pain and spontaneous blood discharge in her right ear, after a two-week treatment with rivaroxaban. The physical examination revealed a spontaneous tympanic haematoma in the inferior quadrants, adjacent to the umbus. She denied any manipulation of the ear canal. Our goal is to alert for a presumable side effect of this drug in clinical practise.

No entanto, tal como a varfarina, têm efeitos adversos, nomeadamente aqueles relacionados com o risco hemorrágico. Neste artigo, apresentamos o caso de uma doente de 50 anos de idade, do género feminino, que se apresentou no serviço de urgência com otalgia e otorragia espontânea à direita, após duas semanas de tratamento com rivaroxabano em dose profilática. No exame objetivo, destacava-se a presença de hematoma nos quadrantes inferiores do tímpano, adjacente ao umbus. Não havia história de manipulação do ouvido. O nosso objetivo é alertar para um provável efeito adverso deste fármaco, na prática clínica.Ordem dos Médicos2019-06-28info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfimage/jpegapplication/pdfimage/jpegapplication/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.documentapplication/pdfhttps://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/9397oai:ojs.www.actamedicaportuguesa.com:article/9397Acta Médica Portuguesa; Vol. 32 No. 6 (2019): June; 469-470Acta Médica Portuguesa; Vol. 32 N.º 6 (2019): Junho; 469-4701646-07580870-399Xreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPenghttps://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/9397https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/9397/5717https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/9397/9772https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/9397/9774https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/9397/9775https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/9397/10667https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/9397/10773Direitos de Autor (c) 2019 Acta Médica Portuguesainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSaldanha, InêsMatos, RicardoÓrfão, TiagoSantos, Margarida2022-12-20T11:05:44Zoai:ojs.www.actamedicaportuguesa.com:article/9397Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:19:42.633216Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
