[Ascending Colon Cancer with Hemophilia A Treated with Laparoscopic Right Hemicolectomy under Control of a Blood Coagulant Factor-A Case Report].

Here, we report a case of ascending colon cancer successfully treated with laparoscopic right hemicolectomy in a 74- year-old man with a medical history of hemophilia A. He was admitted to our hospital because of bloody stool and diagnosed with type 2 ascending colon cancer based on colonoscopy findings. Preoperatively, blood transfusion and administration of recombinant factor Ⅷ products were performed. Surgery involved laparoscopic right hemicolectomy plus group 3 lymph node dissection. No complications, such as bleeding, occurred during hospitalization. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 8. There have been a few reports of laparoscopic surgery for patients with hemophilia. However, this case suggests that it can be safely performed with planned factor Ⅷ supplementation in the perioperative period.
