Malignant disease should also be kept in Malignant disease should also be kept in mind in children presenting with bleeding. mind in children presenting with bleeding. Bone or joint pain, weight loss, Bone or joint pain, weight loss, hepatosplenomegaly, lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly, lymphadenopathy, abdominal distension or palpable masses abdominal distension or palpable masses should be carefully evaluated should be carefully evaluated
Menstural bleedingMenstural bleeding
Prolonged and excessive Prolonged and excessive bleeding is typical for platelet bleeding is typical for platelet disorders or vWDdisorders or vWD
Use of oral contraseptives, Use of oral contraseptives, being anemic, using iron being anemic, using iron medication for iron deficiency medication for iron deficiency are clues to suspect prolonged are clues to suspect prolonged mensesmenses
HemarthrosisHemarthrosis
Typical bleeding for hemophilia Typical bleeding for hemophilia Most commonly affected joints are Most commonly affected joints are knee, elbow and ankleknee, elbow and anklePain, swelling and restriction in Pain, swelling and restriction in motion occur. Skin is tense and warmmotion occur. Skin is tense and warm Depending on the severity of the Depending on the severity of the disease, it’s usually seen around age disease, it’s usually seen around age 1-2 1-2 Recurrent bleeding in a single joint Recurrent bleeding in a single joint may lead to target joint and chronic may lead to target joint and chronic synovitissynovitis
Other types of bleedingOther types of bleeding
Epistaxis and gingival bleeding Epistaxis and gingival bleeding are frequently seen in platelet are frequently seen in platelet disorders and vWD disorders and vWD

Any abnormality in these tests Any abnormality in these tests will suggest the presence of the will suggest the presence of the most common congenital most common congenital bleeding disorder, vWDbleeding disorder, vWD

PPlatelet aggregation tests latelet aggregation tests (with ADP, epinephrin, collagen, (with ADP, epinephrin, collagen, ristocetin) ristocetin)
This test will tell if there are any This test will tell if there are any adhesion, aggregation or release adhesion, aggregation or release defects in the platelets defects in the platelets
Platelet functional abnormalitiesPlatelet functional abnormalities
In Glanzmann thrombasthenia In Glanzmann thrombasthenia absence of aggregation with ADP, absence of aggregation with ADP, collagen and epinephrin is collagen and epinephrin is characteristiccharacteristic
Abnormal response to ristocetin is Abnormal response to ristocetin is seen in vWD and Bernard-Soulier seen in vWD and Bernard-Soulier syndrome syndrome
Recently, platelet functions are Recently, platelet functions are measured with a device called PFA-measured with a device called PFA-100 (Platelet Function Analyzer) and 100 (Platelet Function Analyzer) and more accurate results are obtainedmore accurate results are obtained

normal value of aPTT is 20-35 sec. normal value of aPTT is 20-35 sec. It may be as long as 50-85 sec in It may be as long as 50-85 sec in newborns and premature babies newborns and premature babies

In order to differentiate whether the In order to differentiate whether the prolongation is due to factor deficiency prolongation is due to factor deficiency or the presence of an inhibitor, or the presence of an inhibitor, patient’s plasma is mixed 1:1 with patient’s plasma is mixed 1:1 with normal plasma and aPTT is repeated normal plasma and aPTT is repeated (mixing test)(mixing test)aPTT returns to normal in clotting aPTT returns to normal in clotting factor deficiencyfactor deficiency it remains prolonged in the presence it remains prolonged in the presence of heparin, lupus anticoagulant (LA) or of heparin, lupus anticoagulant (LA) or antibodies directed against the clotting antibodies directed against the clotting factors (anti phospholipid antibodies)factors (anti phospholipid antibodies)

The diagnosis of hemophilia A and B The diagnosis of hemophilia A and B are established by measuring the are established by measuring the FVIII and FIX levelsFVIII and FIX levels
It is classified according to the factor It is classified according to the factor level as severe (<1%), moderate (1-level as severe (<1%), moderate (1-5%), and mild (5-25%) hemophilia 5%), and mild (5-25%) hemophilia
Most of the cases are hemophilia A Most of the cases are hemophilia A (80-85%) and severe type (50-70%).(80-85%) and severe type (50-70%).
PT prolonged aPTT normalPT prolonged aPTT normal
Typical for F VII deficiencyTypical for F VII deficiency
PT is prolonged if the levels of one or PT is prolonged if the levels of one or more than one of the Factors II, V, VII more than one of the Factors II, V, VII and X are <40%and X are <40%
If fibrinogen level is <100mg/dl, PT If fibrinogen level is <100mg/dl, PT is prolongedis prolonged
Normal value for PT is 11-12,5 sec in Normal value for PT is 11-12,5 sec in children and adults, 12,8-14,4 sec in children and adults, 12,8-14,4 sec in term infants and 14,6-18,4 sec. in term infants and 14,6-18,4 sec. in premature babiespremature babies
PTPTProlonged values in infants normalize Prolonged values in infants normalize within 2-6 monthswithin 2-6 months
INR (International Normalized Ratio)INR (International Normalized Ratio) is calculated to prevent the is calculated to prevent the differences between laboratories due differences between laboratories due to the use of different to the use of different thromboplastine for the thromboplastine for the measurement of PTmeasurement of PT
Both aPTT and PT are prolongedBoth aPTT and PT are prolonged
In this case TT is measured. If it is normal; In this case TT is measured. If it is normal; liver disease, vit K deficiency, coumadin liver disease, vit K deficiency, coumadin effect or presence of anticoagulants should effect or presence of anticoagulants should be considered be considered
If TT is prolonged, afibrinogenemia, If TT is prolonged, afibrinogenemia, dysfibrinogenemia and DIC are the possible dysfibrinogenemia and DIC are the possible diagnosisdiagnosis
