Other genetic bleeding disorders

Many proteins are involved in the cascade of the clotting process. Each genetic malformation in a protein can cause a bleeding disorder. But the expression of the disorder is more rare than haemophilia or Von Willebrand. Each disorder has to be treated by its own specific therapy.

This is a list of the most common other hereditary rare bleeding disorders:

  • F I = Fibrinogen Deficiencies: afibrinogenemia; hypofibrinogenemia; dysfibrinogenemia; hypodysfibrinogenemia
  • F II = Prothrombin Deficiency
  • F V = Factor V-deficiency
  • F V-VIII = Combined Factor V-VIII deficiency
  • F VII = Factor VII deficiency
  • F X = Factor X deficiency
  • F XI = Factor XI deficiency
  • F XIII = Factor XIII deficiency
  • Vit K + ... = Combined deficiency of Vitamin K-dependent Clotting Factors (II, VII, IX, X)
  • Glanzman Thrombastenia
  • Bernard-Soulier
