Disorders of coagulation in children often prove challenging to the medical care team. The aims of this study were to assess the spectrum and prevalence of coagulation disorders among children attending Mansoura University Children Hospital (MUCH), Mansoura, Egypt. A total of 105 pediatric patients were referred to MUCH. They were divided into two groups: congenital coagulation disorders (75 cases, age 45.36 +/- 48.59 months), and acquired coagulation disorders (30 cases, age 56.13 +/- 61.61 months). All patients were subjected to thorough history taking including the nature of bleeding, family, past history, mode of inheritance, and detailed physical findings. Hemostatic tests included: platelet count, bleeding time (BT), prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time (TT). Specific tests in the congenital group include assay of coagulation factors according to each disorder, Von Willebrand factor assay, ristocetin aggregation test, APTT mixing study for detection of inhibitors in complicated hemophilia cases, F VIII C to VWAg ratio with cut off 0.7 for detection of carriers in some hemophilia A families. Congenital disorders constituted 71.4% of the studied cases vs. 28.6% for acquired disorders. Hemophilia A (42.85%), hemophilia B (14.28%) and liver diseases (14.28%) represented the majority of the studied cases. Mild and moderate cases of hemophilia A and B are more frequent than severe cases in both types. Male sex is more frequent than female in the congenital group (94.7 vs. 5.3%, P < 0.001). Direct correlation existed between factor level assay and severity of hemophilia (r = 0.73, P = 0.006). Three mothers and one sister were identified as carrier out of four families. Anti-clotting factors inhibitor was detected in 18.2% of patients with hemophilia A and in 9.1% with hemophilia B. In conclusion, our study found that hemophilias are the most prevalent congenital coagulation disorders among children. Attention must be given for detection of hemophilia carriers and inhibitors of clotting factors.
