Abstract:
A case of Factor V deficiency, the first case in Korea, is reported in a 9-year-old boy whose plasma concentration of Factor V was 6%. He complained of easy bruisability, prolonged bleeding from the mouth after minor trauma and hemarthrosis and flexion contracture of the right knee. His parents are heterozygous (maternal Factor V concentration 52%, paternal 40%).
