Long-term successful percutaneous coronary intervention in factor VII deficiency

J Invasive Cardiol. 2012 Jun;24(6):E119-21.

Abstract

Factor VII deficiency (FVIId) is a congenital coagulation disorder with a wide spectrum of bleeding phenotypes. Percutaneous coronary intervention requires full anticoagulation during stent implantation to avoid acute coronary thrombosis and long-term dual antiplatelet therapy. Feasibility of percutaneous coronary intervention in FVIId is not described in literature. We present a successful case of percutaneous coronary intervention in a 55-year-old male with FVIId, discussing briefly the periprocedural handicaps (anticoagulation regimen and hemostasis at arterial puncture site) as the safety of long-term antiplatelet therapy, and future implications for recombinant FVIId administration in a patient with a previous coronary stent.
