ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

In our case, the use of a low intravenous bolus dose of rFVIIa (recombinant factor VII activated; 15-20 mcg/kg) was effective and uneventful in controlling late postprocedural PDT bleeding associated with thrombocytopenia that cannot be corrected and after all other treatments failed.
