Core Tip

Core tip: Acquired factor V deficiency (AFVD) is a rare secondary hemorrhagic disease, which can lead to serious bleeding disorder. We report a new AVFD case of a hemodialysis patient with severe serous cavity hemorrhagic effusion, associated with potentially secondary to lymphatic leakage, and factor V inhibitor detection is negative. This is the first report regarding the association between coagulation factor V deficiency and lymphatic drainage in hemodialysis patient of chronic kidney disease patient. Careful follow-up of blood coagulation is needed in patients under the treatment of lymphatic drainage.
