The importance of incidentally detected coagulation abnormalities in children
According to the results of our study in patients presenting with incidental PT and/or aPTT prolongation, mild factor deficiencies are more common than expected. Mild coagulation factor deficiencies can be seen in patients without any bleeding history. There is often no evidence of bleeding in mild factor deficiencies, and their clinical significance is unknown.
