ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Management of the enhanced-fibrinolytic type of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) caused by aortic disorders is the two strategies of surgical intervention and medical treatment based on the patient's age and comorbidities. CASE PRESENTATION An 81-year-old woman with a history of two previous aortic surgeries and chronic heart and renal failure was admitted for uncontrollable subcutaneous hemorrhage. The hemorrhage was caused by the enhanced-fibrinolytic type of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) caused by periprosthetic graft hematoma after aortic replacement for Stanford type A aortic dissection. Open thoracic hemostasis temporarily controlled the subcutaneous hemorrhage, but she was readmitted for the recurrence seven months after discharge. On the second admission, the combination of anticoagulant and antifibrinolytic agents was successful.CONCLUSION:
Management of the enhanced-fibrinolytic type of DIC caused by aortic disorders is important of a successful combination of surgical and medical therapy tailored the patient's condition.Palabras clave
