[Kidney transplantation in patient with haemophilia A.] Transfusion clinique et biologique : journal de la Societe francaise de transfusion sanguine [Transfus Clin Biol] Journal article

A 37-year-old patient with moderate haemophilia A and end-stage renal disease underwent kidney transplantation in the University Hospital Ibn Rochd of Casablanca (Morocco). He received factor VIII replacement therapy perioperatively and until the 21st day postoperation. So, the activity rates of Factor VIII was higher than or equal to 80 % in the day of intervention and two to three days later, then between 30 and 60 % until healing. The evolution of the patient to 28 months post-transplantation is marked by a good renal function without episode of rejection or bleeding complications. The heavy surgical interventions are possible in patients with haemophilia, but depend on good replacement therapy in peri- and postoperation.
