A 40's Japanese man had a history of blood transfusion and administration of treatment coagulation factors for hemophilia A since he was 6 years old. He has been on IFN treatment for hepatitis C since he was 14 years old. Lastly, he has been undergoing HAART therapy for human immunodeficiency virus infection since he was 18 years old. Three years ago, he underwent partial hepatectomy for a tumor located in segment 8 of his liver and was diagnosed with combined hepatocellular carcinoma(CHC). Two years and 7 months after the operation, 2 intrahepatic recurrences were detected in the left lobe. He was referred to our hospital to undergo curative resection, and we performed a left lobectomy of the liver for the CHC recurrences. Perioperatively, supplemental factor Ⅷ was administered via APTT. Its activity was used as an index. Postoperatively, the patient was well, was discharged 13 days after surgery, and remained recurrence-free for 4 months.
