抄録

Four cases of lower extremity hematoma in patients undergoing anticoagulant therapy after heart valve replacement are herein reported, with special emphasis on the comparative diagnostic value of ultrasonography and computerized tomography. Although conservative management is sufficient for patients with no neurological impairment, needle aspiration after autolysis of the hematoma, which can be confirmed by CT study, is also recommended.
