Abstract

FXI deficiency is a rare bleeding disorder characterised by a decreased level or activity of factor. Pregnant women are at increased risk of uterine bleeding during childbirth. Neuroaxial analgesia may increase the risk of epidural hematoma in these patients. However, there is no consensus on the anaesthetic management.

We present the clinical case of a 36-year-old woman with a personal history of factor XI deficiency, pregnant with 38 weeks gestation who is scheduled to perform birth induction. Pre-induction factor levels were measured. They were less than 40%, so it was decided to transfuse 20 ml/kg of fresh frozen plasma. After the transfusion it had levels greater than 40%, so epidural analgesia was performed without incident. The patient had no complications secondary to epidural analgesia or transfusion of a high volume of plasma.

Resumen

El déficit de factor XI es una enfermedad hemorrágica rara que se caracteriza por presentar disminución del nivel o de la actividad del factor. Las mujeres embarazadas con esta patología presentan mayor riesgo de sangrado uterino durante el parto. El uso de analgesia neuroaxial en estas pacientes puede aumentar el riesgo de producir hematoma epidural. Es necesario realizar un seguimiento multidisciplinar en el que participen activamente Anestesiólogos, Hematólogos y Ginecólogos. Actualmente disponemos de escasa bibliografía sobre el manejo anestésico de este tipo de patología.

Presentamos el caso clínico de una mujer de 36 años con antecedentes personales de déficit de factor XI, embarazada de 38 semanas de gestación que es programada para realización de inducción del parto. Previa a la inducción se midieron los niveles del factor siendo inferiores al 40%, por lo que se decidió transfundir 20 ml/kg de plasma fresco congelado. Tras la transfusión presentó niveles superiores al 40%, por lo que se realizó analgesia epidural sin incidencias. La paciente no presentó complicaciones secundarias a la analgesia epidural ni a la transfusión de un volumen elevado de plasma.
