Abstract
Background: Direct oral anticoagulants are commonly used instead of vitamin K antagonists in patients needing long-term anticoagulant treatment. As their use has become more popular, there is an increase possibility to perform a major surgery on an urgent or emergency basis on patients under nonvitamin–K antagonist oral anticoagulants. Case report: We report a case of a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm on a male patient under rivaroxaban and clopidogrel. Emergency open repair of the aneurysm was performed. No anti-Xa antidote was administered. The patient had an uneventful recovery. Conclusion: An open repair of a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm under rivaroxaban is feasible. However, an antidote should be available in cases of uncontrolled diffused bleeding. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of successful open repair of a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm on a patient under rivaroxaban and clopidogrel. © 201
