Anticoagulation for Stroke Prevention after Restoration of Haemostasis with Emicizumab in Acquired Haemophilia A

Abstract: Acquired haemophilia A (AHA) is a rare haemorrhagic disorder caused by the development of autoantibodies inhibiting factor VIII function. It predominantly affects the elderly, who are often burdened with a considerable number of comorbidities, and can result in life-threatening bleeding. The management of AHA consists of two aspects: inhibitor eradication with an immunomodulator and bleed control with a bypassing agent. Here we present a case of AHA with a high titre inhibitor in a patient with extensive comor… Show more

“…At the time of diagnosis, the patient had life-threatening bleeding in the oropharynx, which was provoked by gastroscopy. Delays in the diagnosis of acquired hemophilia leading to frequently fatal bleeding, in patients on oral anticoagulant therapy, have also been reported in literature [13][14][15]. Any invasive diagnostics or surgical procedure in patients with unrecognized acquired hemophilia can provoke heavy bleeding, as was the case with our patient [6,8,18].…”

“…U trenutku kada je postavljena dijagnoza, bolesnik je imao po život opasno krvarenje u orofarinksu, koje je bilo isprovocirano gastroskopijom. I u literaturnim podacima se navodi kašnjenje u dijagnozi stečene hemofilijie kod bolesnika na oralnoj antikoagulantnoj terapiji, što dovodi do često fatalnih krvarenja [13][14][15]. Svaka invazivna dijagnostika ili hirurška intervencija kod bolesnika sa neprepoznatom stečenom hemofilijom može isprovocirati obilna krvarenja, kao što je bio slučaj kod našeg bolesnika [6,8,18].…”
