摘要

FX is a vitamin K-dependent coagulation protease critically essential for the coagulation cascade. FXD (congenital deficiency of factor X) is a rare coagulation disorder that inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. Here we reported a patient with bleeding diathesis from infant. The proband with pseudotumor in cerebral articular and cavity were identified as encapsulated hematocele ultimately. FX sequence analysis revealed that the patient carried a novel homozygous missense mutation that resulted in the Val384Ala substitution. Further investigation of the novel mutation would deepen our understanding of the bleeding mechanism involved in FXD.
