Acquired hemophilia A is a very rare disease caused by the acquisition of factor Vlll inhibitor. We report a case of acquired hemophilia A incidentally diagnosed in a patient who had bleeding after tooth extraction. A 77-year-old man who complained of bleeding after tooth extraction presented at our hospital. Hematological examination revealed a prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), decreased coagulation activity of factor Vlll, and high level of factor Vlll inhibitor. Consequently, acquired hemophilia A was diagnosed. The patient received corticosteroids and bypass therapy. Four months later, the APTT and factor Vlll activity returned to the normal level. Although this is a very rare case, we should suspect hematologic disease, including acquired hemophilia A, when we encounter patients with bleeding after tooth extraction.
