The Editor,
Sir,
A 75-year-old man was seen due to pain and numbness on the medial side of his left forearm (worse at night) for the last one month. He described that his complaints started after he had been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation and put on warfarin (5 mg/day) and low molecular weight heparin (1.2 g/day) therapy. In the meantime, venography had shown subclavian vein thrombophlebitis.
