Summary

This is the first reported case in the English literature of Factor XI deficiency in a child from India. He underwent open-heart surgery and pulmonary valvulotomy without excessive or delayed hemorrhage using plasma infusion to sustain Factor XI levels at about 40% of normal before, and for 10 days after surgery. The management of this child is presented as an approach to patients with Factor XI deficiency who require major surgery.
