Abstract

Because of their cost and the large amount of experience, vitamin k antagonists are widely prescribed in the world for the prevention and treatment of thrombosis. However, cases of resistance to VKA exist, although they are difficult to authenticate. Direct oral anticoagulants DOA represent a good alternative. We report a case of true hemodynamic and genetic resistance to VKA in which rivaroxaban was the solution.
