Hemorrhagic disorders of fibrinolysis: a clinical review

Abstract: Hyperfibrinolytic bleeding can be caused by a deficiency of one of the inhibitors of fibrinolysis (plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 [PAI-1] or α2-antiplasmin [α2-AP]), or an excess of one of the activators of fibrinolysis: tissue-type plasminogen activator or urokinase-type plasminogen activator. This review focuses on the clinical implications of these disorders. The bleeding phenotype of fibrinolytic disorders is characterized by delayed bleeding after trauma, surgery and dental procedures. Bleeding in… Show more

“…To avoid overdiagnosis and false-positive results, laboratory tests for diagnosing a PAI-1 deficiency or hyperfibrinolysis are performed only in case of an ISTH BAT score $10, a positive family history of a fibrinolysis disorder, or in patients with a typical fibrinolytic bleeding pattern (ie, delayed bleeding after interventions and/or co-occurrence with obstetric failure). 5,18 Patients with a PAI-1 deficiency were eligible for inclusion if the PAI-1 activity level was below the detection limit and the PAI-1 antigen level was below the lower limit of normal (reference range, 3.4-39 ng/mL). Patients with hyperfibrinolysis were eligible if the euglobulin clot lysis time ratio before and after application of a tourniquet was $5.8 (reference range, 1.2-5.7, locally validated assay).…”

“…The bleeding phenotype of patients with fibrinolytic disorders is characterized by delayed bleeding after trauma, surgery, and dental procedures. 5 Bleeding in areas of high fibrinolytic activity is also common, such as menorrhagia and epistaxis. 5 Another category of RBDs is FV Amsterdam.…”

“…Congenital deficiency of α 2 ‐AP is extremely rare, with fewer than 18 cases reported worldwide (Pozzi et al , ) and causes a significant bleeding disorder due to uninhibited hyperfibrinolysis. A recent review highlighted that only three women have been described with homozygous α 2 ‐AP deficiency, with limited published experience of management (Saes et al , ). We report a family with a novel germline variant in SERPINF2 causing α 2 ‐AP deficiency and discuss some of the challenges faced in the management of this rare bleeding disorder.…”
