12 Summary Excessive bleeding in factor XI deficient patients may be influenced by: factor level site and type of injury other coagulation defects or procoagulant factors Th e t ype II and t ype III mut ations prob ably follow an aut osomal recessive inh eritance patt ern, with symptoms primarily in those with severe deficiency (h omozygotes) Th e d imeric structure of factor X I predicts that d ominant negative forms of fact or XI d eficiency should occur through h eterodimer formation Dominant negat ive mut ations are likely t o be responsib le for cases of families with apparent autosomal dominant factor X I deficiency 34 Treatment Bleeding in factor XI deficiency is usually trauma or surgery induced and may occur immediately after injury or after several hours delay Bleeding, once it occurs, tends to persist in the absence of treatment It is recommended that all factor XI deficient patients undergoing surgery receive replacement therapy, regardless of past bleeding history The target level for replacement is 3-4% of the normal level prior to surgery, with the goal of maintaining this level for about one week fresh frozen plasma factor XI concentrates (thrombosis in 1%) Anti-fibrinolytic agents such as tranexamic acid may be used for tooth extraction without plasma replacement Replacement therapy is not routinely recommended prior to vaginal delivery or caesarean section (reserve for post-partum hemorrhage) After Salomon and Seligsohn, Haemophilia 1: ; Inhibitors Alloantibody factor XI inhibitors may complicate factor replacement in factor XI deficient patients A study by Salomon and coworkers in Israel demonstrated that 33% of homozygotes for the type II (Glu117Stop) mutation develop these inhibitors Inhibitors were associated with bleeding during surgery It may be prudent to identify these patients by DNA analysis, and avoid plasma replacement therapy where possible (anti-fibrinolytic therapy for tooth extraction, for example) In bleeding factor XI deficient patients who do not respond to replacement therapy because of inhibitors, recombinant factor VIIa has been used in several cases to stop bleeding Salomon et al., Blood 11; 88: ; 23 After Salomon and Seligsohn, Haemophilia 1: ; The screen versions of these slides have full details of copyright and acknowledgements 12

15 Factor XI and Thrombotic Disease Summary Epidemiologic studies in humans indicates that factor XI may contribute to venous and arterial thrombotic disease Th e procoagulant and anti-fibrinolytic activities of factor XI could contribute to thrombus formation Factor IX deficient mice have a significant bleeding disorder while factor XI deficient mice have little excessive bleeding In a carot id art ery thromb osis model fact or X I and fact or IX deficiency appear to have comparable protective effects This suggests that the role of factor X I in path ologic thromb us formation differs substantially from its role in normal h emostasis As fact or XI d eficient pat ients d o not suffer from spontaneous bleeding, therapeutic inhib ition of factor X I may be a safe and effect ive method for t reating or preventing thromboembolic disease The screen versions of these slides have full details of copyright and acknowledgements 15
