The prophylactic use of recombinant factor VIIa in a patient with DeBakey type III aortic dissection: A case report / 대한마취과학회지

ABSTRACT

Little is known about the prophylactic use of recombinant factor VIIa (rFVIIa) in patients undergoing surgery for a bleeding aorta employing cardiopulmonary bypass. We report the successful use of rFVIIa in a patient undergoing hypothermic circulatory arrest and prolonged cardiopulmonary bypass for repair of a DeBakey type III aortic dissection.
