Abstract
The authors report two cases of successful employment of human recombinant activated factor VII in gynecological oncological patients (endometrial cancer and vaginal sarcoma) without pre-existing coagulopathy. They conclude that recombinant factor VIIa may be an important and effective drug in severe bleeding in gynecological oncology.
