[Successful preoperative replacement of prothrombin with prothrombin complex concentrate for Prothrombin Himi].

Abstract

Dysprothrombinemia is the rarest inherited bleeding disorder that is characterized by a decrease in the prothrombin activity, but normal antigen levels. In this study, we report the case of a compound heterozygote of two mutations in prothrombin; Met337Thr and Arg388His, which has previously been identified as "Prothrombin Himi." A systemic blood coagulation evaluation revealed a prolonged prothrombin time (39%) and activated partial thromboplastin (64.4 sec), with an isolated severe decrease in the prothrombin activity (8.6%). Preoperative replacement of prothrombin with prothrombin complex concentrate, PPSB-HT "Nichiyaku," successfully prevented abnormal postoperative bleeding after laparoscopic hysterectomy for cervical cancer. This is the second reported case of Prothrombin Himi.
