F7 coagulation factor VII (serum prothrombin conversion accelerator) [Homo sapiens] - Gene - NCBI RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes Congenital factor VII deficiency Hypoproconvertinemia Factor VII (FVII) deficiency is a rare hereditary hemorrhagic disease caused by the diminution or absence of this coagulation factor. Prevalence appears to be close to 1/300,000. The clinical expression of this disorder is highly variable, and no consistent relationship has been found between the severity of the hemorrhagic syndrome and the residual levels of FVII activity. The clinical picture can be very severe, with the early occurrence of intracerebral hemorrhages or repeated hemarthroses, or, in contrast, moderate with cutaneous-mucosal hemorrhages (epistaxis, menorrhagia) or hemorrhages provoked by a surgical intervention. Finally, numerous subjects are completely asymptomatic despite a very low FVII level. Expert reviewer(s) Dr Muriel GIANSILY-BLAIZOT Last update: May 2009
