Factor V (Quebec): a bleeding diathesis associated with a qualitative platelet Factor V deficiency.

Studies were performed on a French-Canadian family afflicted with a bleeding disorder exhibiting an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern and a severe bleeding diathesis after trauma. Clinical laboratory coagulation tests were unimpressive; the only persistent abnormalities include mild thrombocytopenia and moderately reduced Factor V clotting activities. Some individuals had prolonged Stypven...

FACTOR V AND VIII INHIBITOR IN PATIENTS WITH COMBINED FACTOR V AND VIII DEFICIENCY

Patients with coagulation factor(s) deficiency who use coagulation therapy are susceptible to forming inhibitors against coagulation factor(s). In this survey we detected factor V and VIII inhibitor in ten patients with combined deficiency of factors V and VIII from north east of Iran (Khorassan province). It was revealed in our survey that eight patients had both factor V and factor VIII i...

Combined Factor V and VIII Deficiency

This review summarizes current data on the pathomechanisms and new genetic findings of combined factor V and VIII deficiency (CF5F8D). Congenital haemorrhagic disorders characterized by deficiency of two clotting factors comprise an interesting group. Among dual coagulation disorders, CF5F8D is the most common type. For the first time combined factor V and VIII deficiency (F5F8D) was reported b...
