  • Title: Acquired factor VIII inhibitor.
    Author: Simpson WG, Neefe J, Zang J, Drosick R, Kearns R.
    Journal: J Ky Med Assoc; 1991 Nov; 89(11):555-7. PubMed ID: 1748831.
    Abstract:
    Development of a circulating inhibitor of the coagulant activity of factor VIII is a rare event producing a clinical picture similar to that of classic hemophilia. A case of autoimmune factor VIII inhibitor has been presented. Although a hemostatic response was rapidly achieved with the infusion of factor IX concentrates, immunosuppressive therapy was initiated. The inhibitor disappeared in less than 20 days from the initiation of therapy.
