1. Factor XIII Deficiency in neonatal period
Majid Naderi MD

2. Patient, a boy 4-day newborn with severe bleeding in umbilical cord, has referred to the clinic at 1 pm. In the examination the baby is a little pale without clear icter and neonatal reflexes has decreased a little. CBC: WBC: 7500 Hb 8 gr/dl Plt: PT, PTT, BT, TT Normal In the patient’s history there are death records of other babies at six days, 2 weeks and one month old that all of their metabolic examination were negative.

3. He was treated with PC , FFP
SONO CNS bleeding was detected
After discharging of hospital his parents refused prophylaxis program
He returned with recurrent CNS bleeding

5. What is your treatment and diagnosis
What is your treatment and diagnosis? -Accurate history of dead babies and mother history of bleeding and abortion. -Accurate history of alive children consists of bleeding neurological problems - Blood products - Doing brain sonography and if needed CT scan and MRI - Genetic study of the baby and parents - Recheck after solubility test 45 days

12. Congenital Factor XIII Deficiency Laboratory Diagnosis - ISTH Guidelines
• Common hemostasis screening tests are normal (PT, PTT, thrombin time, platelet count) • Traditionally, the clot solubility test was used as the screening test • Only detects severe FXIII deficiency (FXIII activity < 5%) • Will be falsely normal if FXIII activity is > 5% • Clot solubility test is no longer recommended Kohler HP, et al. J. Thromb. Haemost. 2011; 9:

13. Congenital Factor XIII Deficiency Laboratory Diagnosis - ISTH Guidelines
• Quantitative FXIII activity assay Plasma and platelet • Quantitative FXIII - A subunit antigen Plasma and platelet • Quantitative FXIII - B subunit antigen Plasma Kohler HP, et al. J. Thromb. Haemost. 2011; 9:

17. Routine cranial scanning
Although many bleeds can be diagnosed by SONO , subdural hematomas can be missed, as can posterior fossa hemorrhages. A normal scan therefore will not exclude all bleeds. It has been shown using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) that in up to almost 50% of normal term neonates there is some evidence of subdural bleeding .

23. Out of 27 neonates, 14 (51. 9%) were females
Out of 27 neonates, 14 (51.9%) were females. The mean age of the patients was 6.4 ± 3.1 days .UCB was present in all the patients at present with in 13 patients (48.1%) was the sole presentation.
Delayed detachment of umbilical stunt 5 (18.5%), seizure 5 (18.5%), hematoma 3 (11.1%), and ecchymosis 1 (3.7%) were concurrent complication with UCB .
Family history of FXIIID 66% , and CNS bleeding were observed in 48%.
There was no significant difference in mean age of patients with CNS bleeding (3.4±0.9 days) and without CNS bleeding (2.9±0.7 days).

25. The majority of bleeds within the first week of birth include excessive oozing from puncture sites, ECH such as subgaleal bleeds and cephalohematomas, Intracranial bleeding. ECH also occurs either alone or in conjunction with an ICH and can be life threatening because of hypovolemic shock. Signs and symptoms of ICH can be nonspecific and include symptoms such as lethargy, poor feeding, and irritability.

Perinatal management
Preimplantation genetic diagnosis is
akin to very early prenatal diagnosis, eliminating the need for
prenatal diagnosis and possible termination of the pregnancy

28. Delivery No absolute contraindication to vaginal delivery, the option of cesarean delivery may be considered on an individual basis taking into account the potential risks of ICH. In the context of vaginal delivery, in order to avoid additional head trauma, it is recommended that instrumental interventions including forceps, vacuum extraction, and the use of scalp electrodes are avoided and early recourse to cesarean delivery is advised where labor fails to progress. The common risk factor for hemorrhage is abnormal labor

29. Treatment options and safety of Human Blood Products receiving by Iranian FXIIID patients
Use of the cheap and safe treatment options to make the most efficiency management is important in limited resource countries
Traditionally, Iranian patients with FXIIID received fresh frozen plasma (FFP) or cryoprecipitate as treatment regimen. Administrated doses were based on the patient’s clinical situation. For cryoprecipitate, the dose was one bag per 10 to 20 kg body weight every 4 weeks, whereas for FFP it was 10 mL/kg every 4 to 6weeks. These doses were successful in the management of major and minor bleeding episodes.
Since 2009, however, plasma derived FXIII concentrate (CSL Behring, Marburg, Germany) has been available in most hemophilia centers. The dose administered for Fibrogammin P depends on the patient’s clinical situation, and ranges from 10 to 35 IU/kg every 4 to 6 weeks.
In this study, no positive blood-borne diseases have been reported.

30. Surgery in the studied population with FXIIID
During the study period, 70 patients underwent minor and major surgeries that were managed by IU/Kg Fibrogammin without any significant bleeding events,
For circumcision 10 IU/Kg before procedure + Trancid and LHA
For major surgery 30 IU/Kg before procedure and 30 IU/Kg post-operative day 3
For CNS surgery 50 IU/Kg before procedure and 50 IU/Kg post-operative day 3
Furthermore, 43 successful deliveries were recorded, consisting of 27 normal deliveries and 16 cases of Caesarian section,
Dose of IU/Kg was given every two weeks during pregnancy
No abortion was detected .
