severe form of bleeding that requires
immediate intervention and transfusion.
hemorrhage
APTT’s result is shortened
if the plasma is incubated with a surface
activating substance such as kaolin
prekallikrein (fletcher factor) deficiency
results in poor contact –phase
reactions
absence of HMWK
Prolonged APTT
Originally described in 1953
Factor XI (Hemophilia C; Rosenthal Syndrome)
autosomal recessive
Autosomal dominant
Presents mild to moderate bleeding.
Factor XI
Factor XI treatment
frequent transfusion of fresh plasma
Represents the first inherited disorder of the intrinsic
cascade to which a clinical bleeding syndrome is attributed
Factor XI
Prevalent in Jewish population
Factor XI
Clinical syndromes of Factor XI
epistaxis, hematuria and menorrhagia.
LABORATORY FINDINGS for factor XI
^ APTT corrected by aged serum and adsorbed plasma
One stage PT and BT are not affected
First scientifically described in 1803
Factor VIII:C
sex-linked disorder transmitted on an
X chromosome by carrier women to their
sons. Inherited Disorders of Coagulation: Intrinsic Pathway Disorders
Factor VIII
most vulnerable parts of the patient with hemophilia A
Joints of the knee, elbow, ankle and shoulder
LABORATORY FINDINGS for hemophilia A
^ APTT corrected by adsorbed plasma but not with aged serum
Tx for hemophilia A
Cryoprecipitate product infusion to replace factor VIII:C
For milder cases, administration of 1-desamino-8-D-arginine-vasopressin (DDAVP)
used or reserved especially for life threatening situations
Porcine factor VIII:C and prothrombin factor components
Represents approximately 14% of hemophilia cases in the
United States
Factor IX deficiency
Milder form of hemophilia than factor VIII:C deficiency
Factor IX deficiency
Deficiency reduces thrombin production and may lead to
soft tissue bleeding that is indistinguishable from
hemophilia A
Factor IX deficiency
Three variants of the disease based on antigenic reactivity
of factor IX
Cross-reactive material positive (CRM+),
cross-reactive material negative (CRM-), cross-reactive
material reduced (CRMR)
LABORATORY FINDINGS of heophilia B
^ APTT corrected with aged serum but not with adsorbed plasma
