Because acquired hemophilia (AH) is a rare entity in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), we aimed to investigate the clinical features of SLE-related AH in Chinese patients. This is a medical records review study carried out at a large tertiary care hospital in China from years 1986 to 2018. We searched the case database in Peking Union Medical College Hospital using the International Classification of Diseases. The clinical data on SLE-related AH patients were collected. A total of 9282 SLE patients had been hospitalized. Six female SLE-related AH patients were identified. Four patients had acquired hemophilia A (AHA), and 2 patients had acquired von Willebrand syndrome. Their mean age was 33.67 ± 13.77 years. Five patients had active disease. The mean SLE disease activity index measured at the time of diagnosis of AH was 10.50 ± 5.28. The average level of activated partial thromboplastin time was 86.5 seconds. Coexistence of secondary antiphospholipid syndrome and AHA was found in one case, and pulmonary embolism was observed 3 years later. After immunosuppressive therapy and symptomatic treatment, an overall remission rate of 83.3% was achieved. The frequency of SLE-related AH was low. The development of AH in SLE patients frequently occurs with active disease. The AH could be the first clinical presentation of SLE. Secondary antiphospholipid syndrome and AHA could appear in the same SLE patient. Early and aggressive treatment contributes to a favorable prognosis.
