The incidence rises steeply with advancing age and following an invasive procedure involving arteries in patients with atherosclerosis.

In this paper we report a clinical case of multiple system disease secondary to anticoagulant therapy in a 69 years old patient. We review the pathogenesis, clinical features, laboratory dates and pathology of the disease
