Summary

Anticoagulant therapy is generally recommended for all patients presenting with acute symptomatic splanchnic vein thrombosis, starting with either low-molecular weight heparin (LMWH) or unfractionated heparin and continuing with the vitamin K antagonists in most patients. Rivaroxaban is approved for the treatment of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, but no studies have assessed the safety of rivaroxaban in the setting of splanchnic vein thrombosis. The investigators aim to collect prospective information on the safety of rivaroxaban in a pilot cohort of 100 patients with acute splanchnic vein thrombosis without liver cirrhosis.
