Presentamos el caso de tres pacientes intervenidos de prótesis total de cadera, que tras la administración protocolaria de tromboprofilaxis con Dabigatrán, presentaron un sangrado rectal importante, siendo este la primera manifestación de un cáncer colorrectal. Todos los casos se trataron durante el postoperatorio inmediato mediante cirugía tratamiento adyuvante. En el caso de un sangrado rectal tras la administración de los nuevos fármacos anticoagulantes es obligatorio descartar patología pre-existente antes de, simplemente, sustituir o suspender la medicación.
We observed rectal bleeding in three asymptomatic patients after administration of Dabigatran in the postoperative period, being this the first manifestation of rectal cancer. In all cases Dabigatran was used as DVT prophylaxis. The cause of bleeding in the three cases was an asymptomatic and previously unknown colo-rectal cancer. All patients underwent tumoral resection surgery. With rectal bleeding in the inmediate postoperatory period after administration of oral anticoagulants, rectal cancer screening must be performed.
