SUMMARY BACKGROUND: Recently, there has been an increasing number of reports regarding adverse skin reactions to subcutaneous heparin administration. Case series have implied that heparin-induced skin lesions are predominantly associated with life-threatening heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) in at least 22% of patients. Skin lesions, therefore, have been included in clinical scores for HIT. OBJECTIVES: To determine the association of heparin-induced skin lesions with HIT. This would have a pivotal impact on further anticoagulatory management in patients with heparin-induced skin lesions. PATIENTS/METHODS: In our observational cohort study, 87 consecutive patients with heparin-induced skin lesions (85 occurring during low-molecular-wei...
