چکیده

Patients with inherited bleeding disorders are rare in obstetric practice but present with prolonged bleeding even after minor invasive procedures. They require a combined approach with obstetric and hematological management of each case, including the neonatal management of a possibly affected fetus. We present the case of a pregnancy in a patient with combined Factor VII deficiency and Glanzmann's thrombasthenia, the successful obstetric and hematological management of the case, and a review of the literature.

Factor VII Gene Defects: Review of Functional Studies and Their Clinical Implications

Coagulation factors belong to a family of plasma glycosylated proteins that should be activated for appropriate blood coagulation. Congenital deficiencies of these factors cause inheritable hemorrhagic diseases. Factor VII (FVII) deficiency is a rare bleeding disorder with variable clinical symptoms. Various mutations have been identified throughout the F7 gene and can affect all the protein do...

Functional and Molecular Characterization of C91S Mutation in the Second Epidermal Growth Factor-like Domain of Factor VII

Background: Coagulation Factor VII is a vitamin K-dependent serine protease which has a pivotal role in the initiation of the coagulation cascade. The congenital Factor VII deficiency is a recessive hemorrhagic disorder that occurs due to mutations of F7 gene. In the present study C91S (p.C91S) substitution was detected in a patient with FVII deficiency. This mutation has not b...

Glanzmann's Thrombasthenia Complicating Pregnancy.

Glanzmann’s thrombasthenia is a rare autosomal recessive hemorrhagic disorder caused by abnormal platelet glycoprotein complex (GP IIb-IIIa) presenting with hemorrhagic symptoms. Pregnancy is not uncommon because fertility is not affected but an association is rare. Also delivery often results in haemorrhage. Newborn thrombocytopenia is occasionally severe, but is always transitory. We report a...
