Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1975
A remarkable syndrome of congenital anomalies has been described in recent years, which has been tentatively attributed to maternal consumption of warfarin sodium (Coumadin) throughout pregnancy. One case reported by Kerber et al 1 in 1968 described pregnancy in a patient with a prosthetic valve, associated with a fetal anomaly ascribed by the authors ...

Archives of Family Medicine, 1992
Skin and subcutaneous tissue necrosis is a rare complication of warfarin therapy. Although the incidence is low, with increased use of warfarin family physicians need to be aware of this potentially catastrophic event. This article reviews the history of warfarin necrosis and discusses its clinical presentation.

Annual Review of Medicine, 2010
Warfarin is a drug with a narrow therapeutic index and a wide interindividual variability in dose requirement. Because it is difficult to predict an accurate dose for an individual, patients starting the drug are at risk of thromboembolism or bleeding associated with underdosing or overdosing, respectively.
