Acquired deficiency of coagulation factor VII
Factor VII (FVII) is found in small amounts in plasma and has a very short half-life in circulation. FVII is vitamin K-dependently synthesized in the liver. As such, hepatopathies, vitamin K deficiency, or use of vitamin K antagonists is the cause of acquired deficiency.

The complex formed between the procoagulant serine protease activated factor VII (FVII) and the membrane protein tissue factor, exposed on the vascular lumen upon injury, triggers the initiation of blood clotting. This review describes the clinical picture of FVII deficiency and provides information on diagnosis and management of the disease.

Hence, a picture of this disorder can only be drawn by reviewing and summarizing the data that is available. This article provides an overview of the understanding of this rare, inherited disorder of coagulation.

Inhibitors to factor
We performed a prospective study of FVII inhibitor occurrence in a large number of patients with FVII deficiency who had received replacement therapy for spontaneous or traumatic bleeding episodes, major or minor surgical interventions or prophylaxis.Inhibitor development was detected in 2.6% (3/115) of patients, but the incidence of de novo inhibitors

Congenital factor VII deficiency is the most common form of rare coagulation factor deficiencies. This article presents a retrospective evaluation of 73 factor VII deficiency cases that had been followed at our center. The study consisted of 48 males and 25 females (2 months-19 years). Thirty-one (42.5%) of them were asymptomatic.
