Abstrakt: Introduction: Factor XI (FXI) deficiency is a rare congenital hemostatic disorder associated with increased bleeding tendency in trauma, surgery or when other hemostatic defects are present. Perioperative hemostatic management of a patient with a severe FXI deficiency undergoing major oncological liver and colorectal surgery with therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) with fresh frozen plasma (FFP) is reported.
Case Description: A 54-year-old male with severe FXI deficiency was scheduled for resection of synchronous rectal cancer and multiple liver metastases. Baseline prothrombin time (PT) was 97 %, activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) 89 s(s) and FXI levels <1 IU/dL. The rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM™) presented a prolonged INTEM clotting time (CT) = 443 s (RV 100-240 s) and a clot formation time (CFT) = 110 s (RV 30-100 s). TPE with FFP was carried out achieving FXI levels up to 46 IU/dL and an aPTT of 33 s, normalizing thromboelastometry parameters to an INTEM CT = 152 s and a CFT = 86 s before the procedure. After surgery, the patient received daily FFP to maintain FXI levels above 30 IU/dL until discharge on the eighth day. A total of 30 FFP units were transfused during hospital stay. No significant bleeding events neither transfusion related complications were observed during the perioperative period.
Conclusion: Given the lack of correlation between FXI levels and bleeding risk, a multidisciplinary approach based on daily FXI levels monitoring, close clinical assessment and factor supplementation is mandatory. In conclusion, TPE with FFP is an efficacious alternative strategy to correct severe FXI deficiency in patients undergoing major surgery.
