- Abstract
The article presents two case studies, one of 75-year-man scheduled to undergo open partial nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma, and another of 44-year-woman presented with right lower abdominal pain. It concludes that the practice of withdrawing antiplatelet drugs days prior to surgical procedures should be changed and that bridging anticoagulation therapy is needed to prevent cardiovascular events.
