Virally inactivated, high-purity factor XI concentrates are available for treatment of patients with factor XI deficiency. However, preliminary experience indicates that some preparations may be thrombogenic. We evaluated whether a highly purified concentrate produced signs of activation of the coagulation cascade in two patients with severe factor XI deficiency infused before and after surgery. Signs of heightened enzymatic activity of the common pathway of coagulation (elevated plasma levels of prothrombin fragment 1 + 2 and fibrinopeptide A) developed in the early post-infusion period, accompanied by more delayed signs of fibrin formation with secondary hyperfibrinolysis (elevated D-dimer and plasmin-antiplasmin complex). These changes occurred in both patients, but were more severe in the older patient with breast cancer when she underwent surgery, being accompanied by fibrinogen and platelet consumption. There were no concomitant signs of heightened activity of the factor VII-tissue factor mechanism on the factor Xase complex (plasma levels of activated factor VII and of factor IX and X activation peptides did not increase). The observed changes in biochemical markers of coagulation activation indicate that concentrate infusions increased thrombin generation and activity and that such changes were magnified by malignancy and surgery. Because some factor XI concentrates may be thrombogenic, they should be used with caution, especially in patients with other risk factors for thrombosis.

Protein S Activity

SummaryIn the present study the effect of oral contraceptive (OC) treatment on selected factors involved in the activation, i.e. circulating activated factor VII (cFVIIa), and in the inhibition of blood coagulation, i.e. plasma protein S activity and circulating thrombomodulin (cTM), were for the first time measured in OC users in a prospective study. Beside other coagulation variables, these parameters were measured during treatment with three low estrogen formulations containing different gestagen components (norgestimate, gestodene). During OC treatment increases in the activation markers prothrombin fragment F1+2 and D-Dimer were found, suggesting an increased activation of blood coagulation and fibrinolysis. Along with elevated plasma levels of FVII antigen, cFVIIa was also found increased in all three treatment groups, while inhibitory components of blood coagulation, plasma protein S activity and cTM, significantly and similarily decreased during treatment in all three treatment groups. We conclude that low dose estrogen pills induce similar changes in the plasma levels of main regulatory components of blood coagulation, despite differences in their gestagen components. Increased levels of activators and decreased activities of inhibitors may contribute to arterial and venous thrombotic complications seen in predisposed OC users.

Surgical Bleeding

INTRODUCTION. The paper presents important facts in the application of recombinant human factor VIIa (rFVIIa) and in the treatment of renal cell carcer. CASE REPORT. A 69-year old male with infiltrative renal cell carcer underwent radical nephrectomy using Hasagawa`s approach. The extirpated tumor was 35 cm in diameter. During surgery, the patient suffered cardiac arrest with 3500 ml blood loss. Twenty-four hours after operation, he lost additional 2100 ml of blood. Despite adequate blood substitution with intensive surgical attempts to treat haemostasis, bleeding did not stop until the application of rFVIIa (300 IU). The patient survived and fully recovered. CONCLUSION. To control massive non-surgical bleeding additionally complicated by paraneoplastic syndrome, extensive surgical intervention, haemodilution and massive blood substitution, the application of rFVIIa has proved to be most successful.

Uremic Patients

SummaryWe investigated plasma activated factor VII (FVIIa) levels in uremic patients (nondialysis group: n = 38; dialysis group: n = 36) and healthy controls (n = 32). We also measured the plasma levels of thrombomodulin (an indicator of endothelial cell injury) and tissue factor. Plasma FVIIa showed a marked increase in the nondialysis group (mean [95% confidence interval]: 4.6 [4.1-5.1] ng/ml, p <0.0001) with the progressive impairment of renal function, as indicated by the serum creatinine level, when compared with the 32 controls (2.8 [2.5-3.1] ng/ml), and was further increased in the dialysis group (6.1 [5.5-6.8] ng/ml, p <0.001 vs. nondialysis group). Plasma levels of thrombomodulin and tissue factor were also higher in the nondialysis group than the control group, and were further increased in the dialysis group. Plasma tissue factor levels did not show any correlation with FVIIa or thrombomodulin in both the nondialysis and dialysis groups. Thus, circulating tissue factor appears to be released by a different mechanism from thrombomodulin and may not contribute to the direct activation of factor VII in uremic patients. On the other hand, the plasma level of thrombomodulin was positively correlated with that of FVIIa in the nondialysis group, and this correlation was independent of renal function. Thus, enhanced conversion of factor VII zymogen to FVIIa, probably related to endothelial cell injury, may be a risk factor for cardiovascular events in uremic patients.

Volkmann Contracture

We present a case of a two-year-old boy with hemophilia A and high titer factor inhibitor, who developed forearm compartment syndrome two days after taking blood samples for a regular check-up of serum concentration of Factor VIII. Emergency fasciotomy was performed to prevent Volkmann contracture. The patient needed bypass therapies including recombitant activated factor VII (rFVIIa), activated prothrombin complexes (aPCC), factors VII・X (MC7-10), and transfusions. Eleven days after the surgical intervention, he was discharged without any functional loss in the affected upper extremity. Early surgical intervention prevented compartment syndrome of affected upper extreme.

SummaryAbetalipoproteinaemia is a rare disorder of apolipoprotein B metabolism associated with extremely low plasma concentrations of triglyce-ride. To discover whether the general positive association between factor VII and triglyceride levels extends to this condition, 5 patients were compared with 18 controls. All patients had a triglyceride below 100 μmol/l. Plasma unesterified fatty acid concentration was normal. Although factor IX activity was only slightly reduced (mean 88% standard) and factor IX antigen was normal, mean activated factor VII in patients was strikingly reduced to 34% of that in controls, a level similar to that found in haemophilia B. The patients’ mean factor VII activity and factor VII antigen were also significantly reduced to 54% and 63% of those in controls, respectively. Mean factor XI activity and tissue factor pathway inhibitor activity were reduced in patients to 70% and 75% of control values respectively, while factor XII, factor XI antigen, factor X, prothrombin and protein C were normal.
