ABSTRACT: Introduction
Congenital factor V deficiency (FVD) is a rare bleeding disorder characterized by low or undetectable plasma factor V (FV) levels leading to mild to severe bleeding symptoms. Currently, more than 100 mutations have been reported in F5. We herein report a patient with FVD from mutations in the F5 gene.Patient concerns
A 52-year-old man with prolonged prothrombin time and activated partial thromboplastin time corrected by mixing test on preoperative screening. His past medical or family history was not remarkable.Diagnosis
Factor assays revealed a markedly reduced FV activity at 7%. Other factors were not decreased. DNA sequencing analysis to detect F5 gene mutations showed the patient was compound heterozygous for c.286G>C (p.Asp96His) and c.2426del (p.P
