Warfarin-induced complete bilateral breast necrosis.

Plastic surgeons are routinely consulted about the care of extended cutaneous necrosis. We present an unusual case of complete bilateral breast necrosis and review of the literature of warfarin-induced necrosis to inform plastic surgeons of new advances in the physiopathology of this entity. Warfarin-induced necrosis seems to be produced by an imbalance between circulating clotting factors and blood anticoagulation factors.
