Amaç: Bu retrospektif çalışmada, hemofili, von Willebrand hastalığı (VWH) ve nadir faktör eksikliği tanısı ile izlenen hastalar klinik ve demografik özellikleri ve takiplerinde ortaya çıkan komplikasyonlar açısından değerlendirilmiştir.Gereç ve Yöntemler: Dr. Sami Ulus Kadın Doğum, Çocuk Sağlığı ve Hastalıkları Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi Çocuk Hematoloji Kliniği’nde çeşitli pıhtılaşma faktörlerinin kalıtsal eksiklikleri tanısı ile izlenen, yaşları 0-14 yıl arasında değişen toplam 105 hasta retrospektif olarak incelenmiştir.Bulgular: Hastaların %46.7’si hemofili A, %16.2’si vWH, %8.6’sı hemofili B tanısı almıştır. Nadir faktör eksikliklerinin sıklığı ise %28.5 olarak saptanmıştır. Bunlar içinde en sık fibrinojen eksikliği (%10.5) ve faktör VII (FVII) eksikliği (%7.6) görülmüştür. Diğer nadir görülen faktör eksiklikleri sırasıyla FXI eksikliği %3.8, FV eksikliği %2.9, FX eksikliği %1.9, FII eksikliği %1 şeklindedir. Hemofili A hastaları en sık hemartroz, von Willebrand faktör (vwF) eksikliği saptanan hastalar ise en sık burun kanaması yakınması ile başvurmuşlardır. On sekiz hasta (%17) herhangi bir yakınma olmaksızın başka bir nedenle tetkik edilirken tanı almıştır. Takipte saptanan komplikasyonlar açısından değerlendiğinde hemofili A hastalarında %12.2 inhibitör gelişimi saptanmıştır. Hepatit B ve hepatit C sıklığı %0.9 olarak bulunmuştur.Sonuç: Kanama bozuklukları hematolojik hastalıklar içinde oldukça geniş bir yer tutması yanında çocuk hastalıkları içinde de sık görülen başvuru nedenlerindendir. Bazı çocuklarda belirgin bulgularla seyretmesine rağmen, bazı olgularda görülen hafif yakınmalar tanının gözden kaçmasına neden olabilmektedir. Semptomatik hastalarda erken tanı ve tedavi önem arz ederken, hafif seyirli veya kanama yakınması olmayıp, anormal laboratuvar sonuçları saptanan olgularda da kalıtsal bir kanama bozukluğu olabileceği akılda tutulmalı ve ileri tetkikler planlanmalıdır.
Objective: The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the clinical spectrum, demographic features and complications in patients with a hereditary coagulation disorder.Material and Methods: A total of 105 patients who were being followed-up with a diagnosis of hereditary coagulation factor defi ciency at the Pediatric Hematology Clinic of Dr. Sami Ulus Obstetrics and Gynecology, Children’s Health and Disease Training and Research Hospital were evaluated retrospectively in this study.Results: The most frequently observed disorders were hemophilia A (46.7%), von Willebrand Disease (vWD) (16.2%) and hemophilia B (8.6%). Rare bleeding disorders (RBD) were detected in 28.5% of the study group and the most common RBDs were fi brinogen (10.5%) and factor VII (7.6%) defi ciencies followed by FXI, FV and FX at 3.8%, 2.9% and 1.9%, respectively. The common initial symptom was hemarthrosis in hemophilia A and epistaxis in vWD. Eighteen patients (17%) were asymptomatic. The frequency of inhibitor development in hemophilia was 12.2%. The prevalence of hepatitis B and hepatitis C among all patients was 0.9%. Conclusion: Bleeding disorders are widely encountered in both hematology and pediatric clinics. Most patients with coagulation disorders present with bleeding symptoms but some patients may be asymptomatic or have minor symptoms that lead to a delay in diagnosis. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are critical in symptomatic patients. One has to keep in mind that not all factor defi ciencies lead to severe bleeding and patients with abnormal laboratory results also need to be investigated for familial coagulation disorders too

The publication language of Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease is English.
Manuscripts submitted to the Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease will go through a double-blind peer-review process. Each submission will be reviewed by at least two external, independent peer reviewers who are experts in the field, in order to ensure an unbiased evaluation process. The editorial board will invite an external and independent editor to manage the evaluation processes of manuscripts submitted by editors or by the editorial board members of the journal. The Editor in Chief is the final authority in the decision-making process for all submissions. Articles accepted for publication in the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics are put in the order of publication, with at least 10 original articles in each issue, taking into account the acceptance dates. If the articles sent to the reviewers for evaluation are assessed as a senior for publication by the reviewers, the section editor and the editor considering all aspects (originality, high scientific quality and citation potential), it receives publication priority in addition to the articles assigned for the next issue.
The aim of the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics is to publish high-quality original research articles that will contribute to the international literature in the field of general pediatric health and diseases and its sub-branches. It also publishes editorial opinions, letters to the editor, reviews, case reports, book reviews, comments on previously published articles, meeting and conference proceedings, announcements, and biography. In addition to the field of child health and diseases, the journal also includes articles prepared in fields such as surgery, dentistry, public health, nutrition and dietetics, social services, human genetics, basic sciences, psychology, psychiatry, educational sciences, sociology and nursing, provided that they are related to this field. can be published.
