Abstract:
9 classic hemophilacs in Severance Hospital, Yonsei University from Dec. '77 to Aug. '79 were reviewed and analysed and the following results were obtained. 1. Intracranial hemorrhage is required the most immediate emergent therapy in hemophiliacs and computerized transverse axial tomogarhy may be essential for the accurate and noninvasive diagnosis and for the effective emergency treatment. 2. To conserve supplies of therapeutic materials and to decrease the possibility of transmitting hepatitis and other diseases with blood products, it is desirable to reduce the amount of blood products with the use of epsilone aminocaproic acid, and epsilone aminocaproic acid may be useful in extraction and/or other non-dental injury with hemophiliacs.
