[Paradoxical bleeding as a complication of the treatment of hemophilia with factor VIII and factor IX preparations]. 1990

Paradoxical bleedings are complications occurring under replacement therapy in haemophiliacs by disturbancies of the primary haemostasis. They have been observed during treatment with factor-VIII- and prothrombin-complex concentrates of long duration and in high dosage. Clinical complications, for example delayed wound healing as well as spontaneous bleedings into the skin and from the mucous membranes, have been observed in one quarter of haemophiliacs under substitution therapy. In one third of these patients pathological parameters of primary haemostasis (prolonged bleeding time, reduced retention, retraction, ADP- and collagen-induced aggregation and the platelet factor 3 release) were found out. The following mechanisms or substances may be the cause for these disturbancies: 1. fibrinogen and factor-VIII split products 2. high content of proteins predominantly fibrinogen and factor-VIII-related antigen 3. antigen-antibody reactions 4. development of inhibitors against the Willebrand factor. For treatment of the paradoxical bleedings freshly prepared cryoprecipitate, prednison and Etamsylatum have been used.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010974 Platelet Aggregation The attachment of PLATELETS to one another. This clumping together can be induced by a number of agents (e.g., THROMBIN; COLLAGEN) and is part of the mechanism leading to the formation of a THROMBUS. Aggregation, Platelet
D001760 Bleeding Time Duration of blood flow after skin puncture. This test is used as a measure of capillary and platelet function.

D001779 Blood Coagulation Factors Endogenous substances, usually proteins, that are involved in the blood coagulation process.

D005164 Factor IX Storage-stable blood coagulation factor acting in the intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation. Its activated form, IXa, forms a complex with factor VIII and calcium on platelet factor 3 to activate factor X to Xa. Deficiency of factor IX results in HEMOPHILIA B (Christmas Disease). Autoprothrombin II,Christmas Factor,Coagulation Factor IX,Plasma Thromboplastin Component,Blood Coagulation Factor IX,Factor 9,Factor IX Complex,Factor IX Fraction,Factor Nine,Factor IX, Coagulation
D005169 Factor VIII Factor VIII of blood coagulation. Antihemophilic factor that is part of the factor VIII/von Willebrand factor complex. Factor VIII is produced in the liver and acts in the intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation. It serves as a cofactor in factor X activation and this action is markedly enhanced by small amounts of thrombin.

D006467 Hemophilia A The classic hemophilia resulting from a deficiency of factor VIII. It is an inherited disorder of blood coagulation characterized by a permanent tendency to hemorrhage.

D006470 Hemorrhage Bleeding or escape of blood from a vessel. Bleeding,Hemorrhages
D006487 Hemostasis The process which spontaneously arrests the flow of BLOOD from vessels carrying blood under pressure. It is accomplished by contraction of the vessels, adhesion and aggregation of formed blood elements (eg. ERYTHROCYTE AGGREGATION), and the process of BLOOD COAGULATION. Hemostases
