Navigating rare coagulation disorders in pregnancy: A case series emphasizing multidisciplinary care
Abstract
Rare coagulation disorders in pregnancy increase the risk of maternal and neonatal complications, and their unpredictable clinical behavior, coupled with a poor correlation between laboratory abnormalities and actual bleeding risk, creates significant management challenges. This case series presents four obstetric patients diagnosed with uncommon coagulation disorders, including congenital Factor XI deficiency, congenital Factor VII deficiency, congenital Factor XII deficiency, and postpartum acquired hemophilia A, all managed at a tertiary care center through a multidisciplinary approach. Individualized antenatal planning, tailored intrapartum hemostatic strategies, anesthesia decision-making, and strict postpartum surveillance were central to management. This series underscores that early diagnosis, individualized risk assessment, and coordinated multidisciplinary involvement are essential for optimizing outcomes in pregnancies complicated by rare coagulation disorders.
