[Cardiac surgery in severe haemorrhagical diseases].

Cardiovascular diseases are the most common disorder in the developed countries. Invasive cardiological and cardiosurgical techniques are known therapies. Yet, patients with severe hereditary haemorrhagical diseases (haemophilia, rare deficiencies of coagulation factors) have an increased bleeding risk by the use of anticoagulants. Therefore, the treatment of these patients requires a concomitant therapy. This article shows eight patients with a severe bleeding diathesis and cardiosurgical interventions in the years 2006 to 2011. This case report shall demonstrate that an adequate therapy can be accomplished with the help of a good cooperation between haemostaseologists and colleagues of the cardioinvasive/cardiosurgical disciplines.
