Amaç: Yaygın kullanımıyla saw palmetto olarak bilinen serenoa repens, alt üriner sistem semptomları için sıkça kullanılan bir bitkisel takviyedir. Bununla birlikte, bu besin takviyesinin toksisitesine ilişkin veriler sınırlıdır. Bu çalışmada, saw palmetto gibi bitkisel ekstrelerin pıhtılaşma bozukluğu ve pankreatite yol açabileceğinin vurgulanması amaçlanmaktadır.

Olgu Sunumu: Bu vaka raporunda, üriner taş hastalığı ve idrar yolu semptomları için saw palmetto ekstresi kullanan 60 yaşında bir erkek hasta sunulmaktadır. Hastanın dil ucunda, gövde ve ekstremitelerinde yaygın ekimozları mevcuttu. Herhangi bir antikoagülan ilaç kullanmayan hastanın koagülometre testleri uzamış; böbrek yetmezliği degelişmişti. Pıhtılaşma bozukluğunu tedavi etmek için K vitamini ve taze donmuş plazma kullanıldı. Tedavisini takip eden günlerde akut pankreatit de gelişen hasta ek komplikasyon gelişmeden tedavisinin 15. gününde taburcu edildi.

Sonuç: Bitkisel takviyeler tıbbi uygulamada yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Saw palmetto ekstrelerinin karın ağrısı, baş ağrısı, hepatotoksisite, koagülopati ve pankreatit gibi farklı yan etkileri olabilir. Bu takviyeleri kullanan hastalar, saw palmettonun bu etkilerinin farkında olmalıdır.

Aim: Serenoa repens, commonly known as saw palmetto, is a widely used herbal supplement for lower
urinary tract symptoms. However, data regarding the toxicity of this dietary supplement is limited. In this study, it is aimed to emphasize that herbal extracts such as saw palmetto can cause coagulation disorder and pancreatitis.

Case Presentation: In this case report, we present a 60 year-old male patient using saw palmetto extract for urinary stone disease and urinary tract symptoms. The patient had widespread ecchymoses on the tip of the tongue, trunk and extremities. The coagulometric tests of the patient, who did not use any anticoagulant drugs, were prolonged; renal failure had also developed. Vitamin K and fresh frozen
plasma were used to treat the coagulopathy. The patient, who also developed acute pancreatitis in the days following hospitalization, was discharged on the 15th day without any additional complications.

Conclusion: Herbal supplements are widely used in medical practice. Saw palmetto extracts may have different adverse effects including abdominal pain, headache, hepatotoxicity, coagulopathy, and pancreatitis. Patients using these supplements should be aware of these effects of saw palmetto.
