Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Rare coagulation factor deficiencies are less-known disorders with variable effects on the patient's life. Management of such patients is a challenge due to the paucity of evidence-based data, more so when patients with these rare disorders encounter a more rare, related condition, like inhibitor development or thrombosis.
AREA COVERED: A comprehensive literature search related to RCFDs and management was performed in PubMed in order to discuss therapeutic options and challenges, prophylaxis, management of minor and major surgeries, obstetric and gynecological complications, inhibitor development and thrombosis.
EXPERT OPINION: Although significant changes have occurred in the management of RCFDs in recent years, more evidence-based studies besides expert opinion are needed for optimal management.
