A case of mitral valve repair complicated by acquired factor V deficiency.
2021
Factor V deficiency is an extremely rare hematologic disorder with an incidence of one in one million. However, the risks related to cardiac surgery employing cardiopulmonary bypass in patients with factor V deficiency are not well established. Herein, we report the case of a 71-year-old male who was incidentally diagnosed with acquired factor V deficiency underwent mitral valve repair for severe mitral regurgitation. The patient was treated preoperatively with an adrenocorticosteroid immunosuppressant therapy; the procedure was performed safely with a positive outcome.
