The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon
A ErenH Gulbins

Abstract

In this report we describe the successful cardiac surgery in a patient with haemophilia A. To undergo to triple on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting the level of factor VIII was estimated to be 100 %, during the operation and the first postoperative week. To reach this level, bolus therapy with B-domain deleted recombinant factor VIII was administered in a low substitution scheme. There was no bleeding complication. The patient discharged on the 14th postoperative day.
