BACKGROUND Bleeding is one of the main concerns in patients undergoing oral anticoagulation therapy. OBJECTIVE To investigate the determinant causes of bleeding in patients undergoing oral anticoagulant therapy. METHODS A total of 360 patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) undergoing oral

Angiosarcoma, one of the least common sarcomas, occurs most commonly in the skin and soft tissues, and postirradiation angiosarcoma of the greater omentum is extremely rare. Only one reported case of postirradiation angiosarcoma involved the greater omentum. We describe the case of 74-year-old

Extragastric leiomyoblastomas are extremely rare. This is the sixth reported case of leiomyoblastoma of the greater omentum, and the only one with acute major bleeding which required an emergency operation. Leiomyoblastomas are low-grade malignant tumors, and especially the gastric ones have an
