AbstractWe report a 40 year old male who presented with fever, dyspnoea, right sided pleuritic chest pain and hemoptysis. His physical examination and chest X-ray revealed features of right sided consolidation with pleural effusion. Worsening of his condition despite adequate antibiotic therapy prompted us to consider an alternative cause. Repeat ECG after 3 days showed S1q3T3 pattern. CT angiogram evidenced thrombus in right pulmonary artery and doppler study of both the lowerlimbs showed normal superficial and deep venous system. Hypercoagulation workup revealed high levels of homocysteine. This is a rare case report of hyperhomocysteinemia presenting as pulmonary embolism without documented deep vein thrombosis, and the patient presented with classical clinical and radiological findings of pneumonia.

Background: Dabigatran is a novel oral anticoagulant molecule which is a direct thrombin (Factor IIa) inhibitor and is used for prevention of stroke and systemic embolism. It is easy to administer as compared to warfarin therapy as it does not require routine laboratory monitoring and has fewer drug interactions. Objective: To present a rare case of oral ulcers secondary to dabigatran in a patient with deep vein thrombosis. Case report: A 68-year-old female presented with painful oral ulcers, retrosternal pain and difficulty in swallowing. She had been taking capsule Dabigatran for the prevention of systemic embolism for 2 months. She had experienced symptoms of onset taking dabigatran for 7 days. Clinical examination revealed three tender, well-defined, clean looking ulcers of various sizes present over the dorsum of the tongue. Dabigatran was withdrawn and the patient was on oral proton pump inhibitors. Patient showed remarkable improvement in oral ulcers after 2 weeks. Conclusion: Patient education and counseling should be done regarding this side effect of dabigatran and proper intake of this medicine.
