Hereditary factor xi deficiency - what does this mean

Hereditary factor xi deficiency is an inherited disorder caused by a mutation in the gene that is responsible for producing factor xi, a clotting factor in the blood. this mutation causes a decrease in the production of factor xi, resulting in an increased risk of bleeding.

What happens during the disease - hereditary factor xi deficiency

Hereditary factor xi deficiency is caused by mutations in the f11 gene, which encodes for factor xi, a clotting factor involved in the intrinsic pathway of coagulation. these mutations lead to a decreased production of factor xi, resulting in a prolonged bleeding time and an increased risk of bleeding episodes.
