Anesthetic Management of a Video-Assisted Thoracoscopy and Pulmonary Biopsy in a Hemophilic Patient. a Case Report

Hemophilia A is an X-linked recessive hereditary bleeding illness that manifests as increased bleeding after moderate trauma and spontaneous bleeding. It is caused by a deficiency of the clotting factor VIII (FVIII). We report a video assisted-thoracoscopy in a 48-year-old patient with Hemophilia A. Hemophilia shouldn't be a barrier to invasive surgery, but there are a few conditions that must be met to ensure a straightforward intraoperative and postoperative course. Understanding the disease, a multidisciplinary team approach, and appropriate anesthetic management can result in a successful surgical outcome.
