Peritonsillar haematoma. The Journal of laryngology and otology, 1997, Volume: 111, Issue:3 We present one patient who was admitted with a peritonsillar haematoma as a complication of acute tonsillitis and concomitant warfarin therapy for prosthetic aortic valves. While tonsillar haemorrhage as a result of acute tonsillitis has been well described, no cases of isolated haematoma formation have been documented, nor has it been recognized previously as a complication of long-term anticoagulant therapy. We discuss establishing the diagnosis, the likely aetiology and implications of this complication.
