In recent years, new oral anticoagulant drugs have been used frequently instead of warfarin in the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF). Although these drugs have similar anticoagulant effects to warfarin, bleeding is less common. Dabigatran is the first of these drugs. Bleeding that may occur after the use of dabigatran is an important undesirable consequence. Bleeding can be major or minor in clinical practice. The incidence of bleeding increases with age. A 93-year-old male patient was admitted to the emergency department with severe urinary bleeding. He was using dabigatran for atrial fibrillation (AF). It was observed that the patient’s aPTT (activated partial thromboplastin time) and INR (international normalized ratio) levels in the emergency department were high. Since there was no cause for bleeding in this patient, it was thought that the bleeding was due to dabigatran. Hemodialysis and/or antidote giving are known in treatment for bleeding after dabigatran. In this case, our aim is to explain that bleeding control can be achieved by giving conservative treatments (general supportive treatment and blood products) to the patient apart from the treatment methods mentioned.

It was aimed to represent a case with concurrent Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) and keratoconus (KC) as a rare entity. A 35-year-old woman had a best-corrected visual acuity was 20/20 in the right eye and 20/60 in the left eye (Snellen). Biomicroscopy revealed bilateral cornea guttata and Fleischer ring in the left eye. Corneal topography demonstrated early KC in the right eye and advanced KC in the left eye. Maximum keratometry (Kmax) and pachymetry at the thinnest location were 46.2 diopters (D) in the right eye and 56.3 D in the left eye, and 530 and 495 microns, respectively. Corneal thinning in KC and subclinical corneal thickening in FECD might lead delay in disease diagnosis.

Hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma is a rare, low-grade, vascular neoplasm with an unpredictable clinical course and usually misdiagnosed as other hepatic tumors based on radiological characteristic features. The most common organs involved are liver, lung and bone. It is still difficult to identify the tumor because it is usually asymptomatic and rare compared to other liver malignancies. Radiological imaging modalities may play an important role in the early diagnosis of this rare disease. In this report, our aim is to present imaging findings of hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma with possible lung metastases in order to extend differential diagnosis and make accurate diagnosis. We evaluated a 38-year-old female patient with right upper quadrant pain using computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and positron emission tomography (PET-CT) imaging modalities. The definitive diagnosis was made after histopathological evaluation of biopsy.
