  • Title: The use of recombinant activated factor VII to control bleeding during repair of a suprarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm.
    Author: Wahlgren CM, Swedenborg J.
    Journal: Eur J Vasc Endovasc Surg; 2003 Aug; 26(2):221-2. PubMed ID: 12917843.
    Abstract:
    Recombinant activated factor VII (rFVIIa) was first used to control bleeding in haemophilia patients. More recently, it has been used to prevent severe bleeding in patients without pre-existing coagulopathy. We report a case where rFVIIa was used to successfully control postoperative bleeding in a patient undergoing suprarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair.
