Headache in a hemophiliac poses a major problem. The fact that at least half of hemophiliacs with proven intracranial hemorrhage present with a headache but no preexisting injury, requires an aggressive approach to the management of these patients. Recent articles point out successful instances of
To investigate the incidence, risk factors, clinical manifestations and prognosis of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) in children with hemophilia A in a center of China, we conducted a retrospective analysis of 126 children with hemophilia A at our hospital in recent 4 years. Thirty-six children with
We report our experience with the incidence of adverse events during the use of Stimate brand intranasal desmopressin acetate (IN DDAVP) for patients with haemophilia A (HA) or von Willebrand disease (vWD) after noting two severe adverse events in one adult patient. All patients with documented vWD
BACKGROUND
Trenonacog alfa (IB1001) is a recombinant factor IX (rFIX) manufactured in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. IB1001 was evaluated in a multicentre clinical trial with haemophilia B patients.
OBJECTIVE
The aim was to establish IB1001 pharmacokinetic non-inferiority to comparator rFIX,
BACKGROUND
Desmopressin (DDAVP) testing (DT) in patients (pts) with haemophilia A (HA) and carriers (CHA) is up to now not standardized. This prompted us to evaluate results of DT carried out between 1996 and 2011 in centres of the Competence Network Haemorrhagic Diatheses East.
METHODS
An increase
A case of ruptured cerebral aneurysm with hemophilia B is reported, and discussion is made concerning the management of mild type hemophilia in surgical operations. A 41-year-old male came to our hospital with complaints of severe headache, vomiting, and transient consciousness disturbance. His
Desmopressin is the treatment of choice in most patients with von Willebrand disease (vWD) and mild hemophilia A (HA). Several studies have demonstrated that the intravenous and subcutaneous route of administration are equivalent in terms of pharmacokinetics and clinical efficacy. Home therapy of
Case I: A 9-year-old boy, diagnosed as having hemophilia A at 8 months, was admitted complaining of slight headache and nausea one day after a minor head trauma. Neurological deficits were absent but CT scan revealed an epidural hematoma in the posterior fossa. Shortly afterwards, he lapsed into
BACKGROUND
Dengue fever is the most rapidly spreading mosquito-borne viral disease in the world. Haemophilia A is the commonest inherited bleeding disorder. There is little data on the incidence and outcome of dengue in patients with haemophila. We report a case of a patient with severe haemophila
Intracranial haemorrhage (ICH) is known to be a severe although uncommon complication of haemophilia. A national survey has been conducted in France in order to collect information about ICHs which occurred in haemophiliacs between 1991 and 2001 and to propose recommendations for the diagnostic and
Octocog alfa, antihaemophilic factor, plasma/albumin free method (Advate®) is a recombinant, human, full-length coagulation factor VIII that does not contain human- or animal-derived plasma proteins. It is indicated for the control and prevention of bleeding episodes, for perioperative management
OBJECTIVE
Chronic hepatitis C (CHC) is a major comorbidity in patients with hemophilia. However, there are no published data on the efficacy of antiviral therapy in Korea. We assessed the safety and efficacy of combination therapy with peginterferon α-2a plus ribavirin for CHC in
OBJECTIVE
A patient with hemophilia A and long-standing recurrent symptoms of idiopathic intracranial hypertension is described. During his relapses, he experienced headache, and attention and language disturbance, but no visual symptoms.
BACKGROUND
Hemophilia A is a rare inherited coagulation
Factor VIII (FVIII) concentrates have revolutionized the treatment of patients with haemophilia A. Concerns over the transmission of viral infections through these products have been addressed through stringent, donor-screening procedures and robust antiviral manufacturing steps. Bio Products
