Hereditary coagulation factor XI deficiency : a rare or neglected disease? Results from a retrospective, single-centre cohort in northern Italy

To examine real-life clinical data regarding hereditary factor XI (FXI) deficiency from a secondary care centre. Retrospective review of clinical records for every FXI:C 0.7 IU/ml or less reported from 2012 to 2020. Seventy-nine patients were included. Six (7.6%) had a severe deficiency (FXI:C <0.2 IU/ml). Only 55 (69.6%) patients were referred to the Haemostasis Centre. Among them, six (15%) were subsequently not identified at increased haemorrhagic risk before a surgical/obstetrical procedure. Thirty-three (41.8%) experienced at least one bleeding event, minor (25 patients) and/or major (16 patients). Minor bleedings were predominantly spontaneous and more frequent in women, major events were mainly provoked. No correlation was found between FXI:C and risk of bleeding ( P  = 0.9153). Lower FXI:C, but not a positive bleeding history, was related with higher likelihood of being referred to the Haemostasis Centre ( P  = 0.0333). Hereditary FXI deficiency prevalence is likely underestimated, real-life clinical practices outside reference centres could be suboptimal.
