Acquired Haemophilia

SummaryWe have performed a monocenter study on 29 consecutive patients with acquired haemophilia A who were referred for diagnosis and treatment to the Düsseldorf Haemophilia Comprehensive Care Center between March 2001 and February 2010. Patients, methods: 18 men (age: 44–86 years) and 11 women (age: 20–83 years). For laboratory evaluation, a standardized staged protocol of aPTT, FVIII : C activity and concentration, mixing studies with patient and normal plasma, and quantification of inhibitor titers (Bethesda assay) was used. Diagnostic work-up included elaborate examinations for any underlying disease. Results: In 18 (62%) of the 29 patients with acquired haemophilia A, an underlying disorder was identified, including 9 patients with respiratory diseases (31%), 7 patients with autoimmune disorders (24%), one with malignancy, and one with postpartum state, while in 11 patients (38%) acquired haemophilia A remained idiopathic. Haemotherapy of bleeding, suppression or elimination of the inhibitor, and induction of immunotolerance to endogenous FVIII:C were performed according to a treatment algorithm. Predefined clinical endpoints were control of bleeding, eradication of the inhibitor, complete or partial remission (CR, PR), relapse, or early death (≤30 days). Of the 29 patients in total, 22 individuals achieved CR (76%), three had PR, one relapsed, and three died within 30 days (one of acute myocardial infarction while on anti-haemorrhagic treatment, one of sepsis while on immunosuppression due to active acquired haemophilia A, one of lung bleeding in association with pre-existing pulmonary sarcoidosis). Conclusion: This monocenter study demonstrates that control of life-threatening bleeding, eradication of the inhibitor, and induction of tolerance to endogenous FVIII have significantly improved the clinical outcome of acquired haemophilia A. Our data also suggest a shift in underlying disorders associated with acquired haemophilia A, whereby, in comparison to published studies, a relative increase in the proportion of patients with respiratory diseases is present.

AbstractThis study was aimed to evaluate different management modalities for peripheral vascular trauma in children, with the aid of the Mangled Extremity Severity Score (MESS). A single-center retrospective analysis took place between 2010 and 2017 at University Hospitals, having emergencies and critical care centers. Different types of vascular repair were adopted by skillful vascular experts and highly trained pediatric surgeons. Patients were divided into three different age groups. Group I included those children between 5 and 10 years; group II involved pediatrics between 11 and 15 years; while children between 16 and 21 years participated in group III. We recruited 183 children with peripheral vascular injuries. They were 87% males and 13% females, with the mean age of 14.72 ± 04. Arteriorrhaphy was performed in 32%; end-to-end anastomosis and natural vein graft were adopted in 40.5 and 49%, respectively. On the other hand, 10.5% underwent bypass surgery. The age groups I and II are highly susceptible to penetrating trauma (p = 0.001), while patients with an extreme age (i.e., group III) are more susceptible to blunt injury (p = 0.001). The MESS has a significant correlation to both age groups I and II (p = 0.001). Vein patch angioplasty and end-to-end primary repair should be adopted as the main treatment options for the repair of extremity vascular injuries in children. Moreover, other treatment modalities, such as repair with autologous vein graft/bypass surgery, may be adopted whenever possible. They are cost-effective, reliable, and simple techniques with fewer postoperative complication, especially in poor/limited resources.

The aim of the study: was improvement of results of surgical treatment of patients of reproductive age eligibility with hyperplastic processes of endometrium (HPE) through the introduction of individualized treatment algorithm with the use of monopolar radio wave and hysteroscopic endometrial ablation. Materials and methods. The study included 62 women with non-atypical form of hyperplasia of the endometrium who were treated at the Center of General gynecology of the clinical hospital «Feofania», gynecological Department at the city maternity hospital № 3 of Kyiv. Depending on the age group, nature of the pathological process and method of treatment is randomized, the distribution of women according to groups: group 1 – 41 women's reproductive eligibility age netipichnaya forms of endometrial hyperplasia (PHEBA and KGEB), who were subjected to hysteroscopic monopolar endometrial ablation; group 2 – 21 female reproductive eligibility age netipichnaya forms of endometrial hyperplasia (PHEBA and KGEB), which was held radiowave ablation of the endometrium (RHAE). In the 1st group the age of patients ranged from 42 to 54 years, mean age was 49.9±4.7 years. In the 2nd group the age of patients ranged from 41 to 53 years, mean age of 51.6±4.3 years. Results. A comparative analysis of the techniques for hysteroscopic monopolar ablation and RHEE showed the fact that for RHEE used local anesthesia, while carrying out hysteroscopic monopolar ablation was necessary intravenous anesthesia. The duration of the hysteroscopic monopolar endometrial ablation was 28.6±5.5 min, RAE – according to the standard method – 44.3±0.3 min. When performing hysteroscopic monopolar endometrial ablation in 2 patients (3.7%) patients observed the signs of intravasation of fluid, increased blood pressure and tachycardia. This syndrome was successfully docked, but in the future, women have conducted a thorough examination. When you run RHAE intraoperative complications have been identified. Conclusion. 1. Women with netipichnaya forms of endometrial hyperplasia eligibility and late reproductive age who do not have reproductive plans as an alternative to hysterectomy, in the presence of contraindications or ineffectiveness of hormone treatment may be recommended or radiowave monopolar hysteroscopic ablation of the endometrium. 2. Monopolar hysteroscopic endometrial ablation is indicated for women with netipichnaya forms of endometrial hyperplasia, can be used in the presence of submucous form of uterine fibroids, postoperative scars on the uterus, but in the absence of adenomyosis II–III degree. The effectiveness of monopolar hysteroscopic endometrial ablation in women with non-atypical form of hyperplasia of the endometrium is 87.8%. 3. Women after endometrial ablation should be under observation for two years. The method of choice for dynamic monitoring of the condition of the uterus in women who underwent endometrial ablation is transvaginal ultrasound which should be performed after 1, 3, 6, 12 and 24 months of follow up. 4. In case of recurrence of hyperplastic process of the endometrium (bleeding, thickening of the M-mode echo according to the ultrasound) shows a hysteroscopy with a mandatory histopathological examination and verification of the diagnosis. Key words: endometrial hyperplasia, women eligibility age, women of reproductive age, ablation of the endometrium.

Hemorrhage is the second leading cause of death in trauma and non-compressible torso hemorrhage is the leading cause of preventable death within this population. Vascular injuries to the pelvis and lower extremity junctional zone may be difficult to control with direct pressure and complex to approach with open surgery. Endovascular interventions such as balloon occlusion, stenting and embolization are potential alternatives or adjuncts to traditional open surgery in patients with blunt or penetrating vascular injuries to the pelvis. This review of the literature will outline contemporary endovascular management strategies for iliac and junctional zone injuries.

The objective of this review study was to analyze the relationship between skeletal muscle mass and postoperative short-term outcomes morbidity in patients with Klatskin tumor who underwent surgical treatment. Low index skeletal muscle mass had a negative impact factor on postoperative morbidity following resection of Klatskin tumor and should therefore be considered as preoperative risk assessment. The further study of body composition in oncological patients allowed revealing the group of patients with high probability of postoperative complications and this factor needed to be added to future models predictive scale of short-term outcomes with the aim of making the most rational preoperative treatment algorithm.
