Successful coronary bypass surgery in a patient with hemophilia: A case report

Abstract

Hemophilia is an X-linked congenital coagulation disorder characterized by increased tendency to bleeding. Hemophilia A is an X-linked disorder resulting from a deficiency in blood clotting factor VIII, a key component of the coagulation cascade. Perioperative management is very important in this patient population. In this report, we present a 78-year-old male case with hemophilia A who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting.
