Congenital factor XII deficiency

ORPHA:330Disease

Also called Congenital Hageman factor deficiency

What it is

A rare, autosomal recessive systemic dysfunction of the hemostatic pathway, that is due to a defect in the coagulation factor XII (FXII or Hageman factor), and is either asymptomatic or characterized by a prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time and an increased risk for thromboembolism. FXII deficiency is strongly associated with primary recurrent abortions.

ICD-10 codes

D68.2filed under a broader ICD-10 category — shared with 13 other rare diseases
