Abstract : We report a case of altered heparin responsiveness encountered before establishment of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in a patient with valvular heart disease and cardiac failure. She was treated with plasma exchange transfusion (PET) in order to achieve an acceptable activated coagulation time (ACT) before institution of CPB.
