AB  - Low molecular weight heparins (LMWHs) are the standard agents used for 
      antithrombotic therapy and prophylaxis. Despite their widespread use, reports 
      about adverse effects from LMWHs are very scarce. Heparin-induced skin necrosis 
      at the injection site is a rare adverse effect, more commonly associated with 
      unfractionated heparin (UFH) rather than with LMWH, while its mechanism remains 
      unclear. This paper deals with the enoxaparin induced skin necrosis.
