Summary: | Background: Recombinant activated factor VII is used for the treatment in patients with inherited or acquired hemophilia with inhibitors and congenital factor VII deficiencies. Objective: Using recombinant activated factor VII in primary postpartum hemorrhage. Material and Method: Two cases of women who had postpartum hemorrhage and were treated with recombinant activated factor VII after all conventional treatment failed. Results: The intractable hemorrhage stopped after treatment with recombinant activated factor VII Conclusion: The present report showed that massive postpartum hemorrhage that failed to all procedures was controlled successfully by recombinant activated factor VII. |
