Surgical excision is the definitive treatment for rare hemophilic pseudotumors. This case highlights successful pelvic bone pseudotumor resection using embolization and factor replacement for hemostasis in hemophilia patients.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Hematology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Hemophilic pseudotumors are rare, occurring in 1-2% of hemophilia patients, primarily those with severe disease or inhibitors.
  • Management options include conservative treatment, embolization, radiation, and surgical excision, with surgery being the only definitive cure.

Observation:

  • A case of a hemophilic pseudotumor affecting the pelvic bone is presented.
  • This complication is more prevalent in patients with severe hemophilia or those who have developed antibodies against factor VIII or IX.

Findings:

  • The study details the successful surgical resection of a pelvic bone hemophilic pseudotumor.
  • Treatment involved arterial embolization followed by surgical excision, with factor replacement utilized to ensure hemostasis.

Implications:

  • This case demonstrates the feasibility and effectiveness of a combined embolization and surgical approach for managing hemophilic pseudotumors.
  • Optimal management requires careful planning, including factor replacement, to mitigate bleeding risks during surgical intervention in hemophilic patients.
