Sean Langenfeld: Rectal Bleeding on Anticoagulation – Don’t Miss Colorectal Cancer

Sean Langenfeld, Surgeon at University of Nebraska Medical Center, shared a post on X:

“An important Colorectal Cancer red flag:

Patient starts anticoagulation and then develops rectal bleeding or anemia.

Many of my patient stories start with:

  • MI-DAPT
  • Afib or DVT-apixaban, etc.

This is followed by new complaints of ‘hemorrhoids.’ They need a colonoscopy.”
