Acquired Haemophilia: A Case Report and Literature Review

Abstract

Acquired haemophilia (AHA) is a rare coagulation disorder secondary to autoantibodies against coagulation factor, most commonly factor VIII with potential for life threatening bleeding episodes. We report a case of an 88-year-old female presenting with frank haematuria three weeks after catheter insertion. Her background was of Alzheimer’s Dementia, Asthma and Bullous Pemphigoid for which she was on low dose maintenance prednisolone (5mg). Laboratory tests showed haemoglobin 98g/dl and partial thromboplastin time (PTT) of 60s, with corrected prothrombin time 52s. Fibrinogen 5.39. As such coagulation factors were tested which revealed factor VIII of 0%. Her case was complicated by urinary tract sepsis, as such she was treated with oral prednisolone 60mg without immunosuppressive agent usage. A pan-CT scan revealed likely mesothelioma for which she declined further investigation. This case report will describe a rare presentation of AHA associated with bullous pemphigoid and mesothelioma, complicated by infection and frailty.

Retraction notice

Retraction Note: Assessment of the Risk of Hemochromatosis in Polytransfused Sickle Cell Patients at the Abidjan Transfusion Therapy Unit

This issue also contains a retraction notice. It is a formal record of a withdrawn article, not a research paper, and it is listed here rather than among the research above.

Article retracted
10.14302/issn.2372-6601.jhor-20-3189 · Volume 3, Issue 4, pages 7-13
Reason for retraction
Redundant (duplicate) publication. An editorial investigation confirmed that a substantially similar article by the same authors had already appeared in the American Journal of Biomedical and Life Sciences on 7 February 2020; that earlier publication is the version of record.
Notice pages
36–37
Notice DOI
10.14302/issn.2372-6601.jhor-25-5854 (registration pending, so it is shown as text rather than a link)

The retracted article itself remains in the archive, labeled, so the published record stays complete. The journal's approach to corrections, expressions of concern and retractions is set out in its editorial policies.
