Detection of a left atrial thrombus under fondaparinux treatment: a case report.
Curr Drug Saf. 2011; (3): 201-3
Interruption of oral anticoagulation is discussed often, particularly in the outpatient setting. We present a 66- year-old woman who developed a thrombus in the left atrial appendage under bridging therapy with fondaparinux. With this case report we would like to emphasize that off-label use of fondaparinux should not be administered to patients at high risk for systemic embolism.
