Intracranial hemorrhage in an infant leads to the diagnosis and treatment of severe hemophilia B: a case report
This is an uncommon case in which rFIXFc was continued despite the appearance of an allergic reaction and the development of FIX inhibitors. Subsequent allergic reactions were prevented with a combination of oral oxatomide and intravenous hydrocortisone given prior to prophylactic rFIXFc. Further studies are recommended to determine the usefulness of this combination with rFIX therapy.
