Emerging Techniques in Minimally Invasive Surgery in Hematologic Malignancies

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hematologic malignancies represent the most common cancers in children. While the mainstays of treatment are chemotherapy and potentially hematopoietic stem cell transplant, minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has a role in the diagnosis and management of complications related both to disease and therapy as well as common pediatric surgical ...

Management of Breakthrough Bleeding During Emicizumab Prophylaxis in Acquired Haemophilia A: Data From the GTH‐AHA‐EMI Study

Haemophilia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The GTH‐AHA‐EMI study showed that emicizumab reduces bleeding in patients with acquired haemophilia A (AHA). However, 22 clinically relevant new bleeds (CRNB) occurred in 14 of the 47 study patients, most of which required haemostatic treatment.
