Congenital Factor VII Deficiency with Distal Gastrectomy

Clinical manifestations, management, and molecular genetics in congenital factor VII deficiency: the International Registry on Congenital Factor VII Deficiency (IRF7)

Factor VII deficiency is a rare bleeding disorder in which premature death may occur from severe bleeding. Up to now, our scientific knowledge on factor VII deficiency has been mainly based on reporting of single cases and groups of patients from confined geographical areas.1-3 To improve our insight and understanding of the epidemiology and the heterogeneity of factor VII deficiency through de...

Jaundice and factor VII deficiency in newborn

Resistance to thyroid hormone is an uncommon condition. We report the clinical and laboratory findings of a case with both resistance to thyroid hormone and, a reduced capacity to produce and respond to thyroid hormone. RTH is a disorder characterized by elevated circulating thyroid hormones, state of non-suppressed pituitary TSH secretion and refractoriness to hormone action in peripheral tiss...

Newly diagnosed congenital factor VII deficiency and utilization of recombinant activated factor VII (NovoSeven®)

UNLABELLED This case report presents a newly diagnosed congenital factor VII deficiency treated with recombinant activated factor VII (rFVIIa). Congenital factor VII deficiency is a rare autosomal-recessive bleeding disorder that occurs in fewer than 1/500,000 persons. Its presentation can vary from epistaxis to hemarthroses and severe central nervous system bleeding, and correlates poorly with...

Congenital deficiency of factor VII in subarachnoid hemorrhage.

BACKGROUND Factor VII is essential for coagulation activation by the extrinsic pathway. Hemorrhages of the central nervous system in patients with congenital factor VII deficiency seem to have a higher incidence compared with other congenital coagulopathies. The purpose of this paper is to report two rare cases of subarachnoid hemorrhage and factor VII deficiency. CASE DESCRIPTION Two cases o...
