New data on FII, FV, FIX and thrombomodulin defects: blood keeps clotting in normal and in peculiar ways.

Conclusions: these new coagulation defects have great implications in the clinical and laboratory approach to the coagulation disorders. They have demonstrated that a prothrombin defect may be associated with thrombosis, that a mild bleeding tendency may occur despite normal Factor V levels and that high levels of plasmatic thrombomodulin may be associated with mild bleeding.
