Congenital Factor V Deficiency: Moroccans Cases

Abstract

Background and Objective: The congenital factor V deficiency, known as Owren's disease or parahemophilia is a rare autosomic recessive haemorrhagic disease of coagulation, identified for the first time in Norway in 1943. In Morocco, there is no national registry including cases of congenital coagulopathy. This study highlights the rarity of inherited factor V deficiency deficiency and the importance of coagulation testing in the diagnosis of condition.
