Gynaecological and obstetrical bleeding in Caucasian women with congenital factor XI deficiency: Results from a twenty-year, retrospective, observational study.

CONCLUSION: Women with FXI deficiency, especially those with a positive history of bleeding or FXI:C ≤43.5%, are at risk of developing gynaecological/obstetrical haemorrhages, most of them mild/moderate. Systematic prophylaxis has questionable effectiveness, but might cause severe side effects. PMID: 30926156 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
