Abstract:
The prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD) and acute coronary syndromes in patients with haemophilia is much lower than in general population and there is a lack of information regarding safe interventional or surgical treatment of CAD in haemophiliacs. This report presents a case of patient with moderate haemophilia A and unstable angina pectoris, who underwent successful coronary angioplasty. The patient was pretreated with factor VIII (before and after the procedure) and the incision site was sealed with vessel closure device. Additionally, the article discusses the issue of the safety of standard, postpercutaneous coronary intervention antiplatelet therapy in patients with haemophilia.
