Abstract

Intracranial haemorrhage (ICH) is the most dreadful complication, and the main cause of death among patients with rare bleeding disorders (RBD) and prenatal diagnosis (PND) is a preventative lifesaving program. A total of 39 PNDs were reported in the literature through a search on PubMed, EMBASE, SCOPUS and Web of Science databases, most often for congenital factor (F) XIII and FVII deficiencies and rarely in FX, FV deficiencies and afibrinogenemia. The main cause to request a PND is ICH and related morbidity and mortality. Different molecular methods including direct sequencing and linkage analysis as well as polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) for a specific mutation are the most common used methods for PND, while factor assay and combination of molecular and factor assay also were used. In this research, 7 severely affected foetuses were identified during PND including 3 foetuses with FXIII deficiency, 3 with FVII deficiency and 1 with FX deficiency. Out of these 7 cases, intrauterine ICH occurred in 1 case with FXIII deficiency, 1 was electively aborted and 1 case with severe FVII deficiency received intrauterine factor transfusion. Postdelivery ICH was reported for 1 patient with s...Continue Reading
