title: [Chronic rheumatic cardiopathy in a patient with of hemophilia successfully treated with surgery].
abstract: A 52 year-old man, with rheumatic cardiopathy and hemophilia was admitted to the hospital for aortic valve replacement and mitral valve commisurotomy. He had a history of allergic reaction to cryoprecipitate, and to undergo to the cardiac surgery, the ideal level of factor VIII was estimated to be 100%. To reach this level he first received 2,500UI of the factor VIII:C increasing the factor VIII:C level from 20 to 58%. During the surgery he received an additional dose of 1,500UI of factor VIII plus 3,500,000UI of aprotinin (Trasylol), which was started at the beginning of the anaesthesia and maintained during the surgical procedure, increasing the factor VIII level to 220%. The patient was discharged 11 days after the surgery without any hemorrhagic complication.
