Coumarin Necrosis

SummaryA female patient is described who developed skin and subcutaneous fat necrosis on two occasions after intake of acenocoumarol.Several months later identical skin changes occurred during an episode of cholestasis associated with a prolongation of the prothrombin time to an extent comparable with therapeutic anticoagulation; intake of oral anticoagulants could be excluded.This association gives new insights in the pathogenetic mechanisms responsible for the so-called coumarin necrosis and indicates that it may be not due to drug toxicity or allergy.

Head And Neck Injury

Head and neck injury as a consequence of in utero pressure and birth trauma is a rare event. We report a case of a patient who was born full-term via vaginal delivery and presented soon after birth with skin changes over the nasal tip consistent with a pressure-related injury that progressed to a stable eschar. Conservative management with close clinical monitoring resulted in a well-healed wound over the nasal tip. A detailed discussion regarding the diagnosis and management of head and neck lesions after birth is provided.
