ABSTRACT
El pseudotumor hemofílico es una complicación muy rara vista en pacientes con hemofilia severa, y que cuyo manejo aún no se encuentra estandarizado. Se presenta el caso de un paciente varón de 33 años de edad admitido en el servicio de cirugía del Hospital Nacional Dos de Mayo por presentar una tumoración localizada en fosa iliaca izquierda, dolorosa a la palpación, asociada a alteración de la marcha. Realizada la exéresis, se identificó un pseudotumor hemofílico gigante ubicado en retroperitoneo. Este caso expone el primer reporte de manejo de pseudotumor hemofílico en nuestro país, con resultados satisfactorios a los 12 meses del posoperatorio.
The hemophilic pseudotumor is a very rare complication occurring in patients with severe hemophilia, and its management has not been standardized yet. We present the case of a 33-year old male patient who was admitted to the surgery ward in Dos de Mayo Hospital in Lima, Peru, who presented with a tumoral mass located in the left iliac fossa, which was painful when palpated, and it was associated with gait alterations. When the mass was excised, a giant hemophilic pseudotumor located in the retroperitoneum was identified. This is the first case describing the management of a hemophilic pseudotumor in our country, with satisfactory results at 12 months after surgery.
