Fatal scenario following dental extraction in middle‐aged man with history of acquired hemophilia: Employment of surgical tracheostomy and use of FFP and cryoprecipitate to gain patent airway

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Acquired hemophilia A can upshot in a life-threatening hemorrhage and airway obstruction. Airway bleeding is a weighty emergency in hemophilia care, necessitating the immediate start of effective hemostatic therapy (porcine factor VIII, the factor eight inhibitor bypassing activity and recombinant factor VIIa) and the decision to undertake proper airway control, such as tracheal intubation and tracheostomy. However, due to the dearth deficiency of effective hemostatic measures we relied upon the use of fresh frozen plasma and cryoprecipitate to gain control of the bleeding despite the precarious threat of infectious disease transmission associated with their use.
