Acquired Hemophilia A (AHA) is a rare disease resulting from autoantibodies against Factor VIII (FVIII) that leads to bleeding. AHA associated with IgG4 related diseases is even rarer. The patient was diagnosed with IgG4 associated autoimmune pancreatitis in January 2019, and the condition improved after two hospitalizations. However, 22 months later, the patient was admitted to hospital due to generalized bleeding points. He was diagnosed with AHA and improved after hormone therapy and plasma exchange. Although IgG4 is associated with IgG4-related disease and AHA, its relevance to the etiology of both diseases is not well understood.

Background. Acquired hemophilia A (AHA) is a rare condition, due to the spontaneous formation of neutralizing antibodies against endogenous factor VIII. About half the cases are associated with pregnancy, postpartum, autoimmune diseases, malignancies, or adverse drug reactions. Symptoms include severe and unexpected bleeding that may prove life-threatening.Case Study. We report a case of AHA associated with bullous pemphigoid (BP), a chronic, autoimmune, subepidermal, blistering skin disease. To our knowledge, this is the 25th documented case of such an association. Following treatment for less than 3 months consisting of methylprednisolone at decreasing dose levels along with four courses of rituximab (monoclonal antibody directed against the CD20 protein), AHA was completely cured and BP well-controlled.Conclusions. This report illustrates a rare association of AHA and BP, supporting the possibility of eradicating the inhibitor with a well-conducted short-term treatment.
