Abstract
Congenital factor XI deficiency (CFXI) is a rare blood disorder that occurs in one of every one million individuals. Given its rarity, there are very few reports of surgical procedures performed in the oral region CFXI patients. The present study reports the case of a 43‑year‑old man with CFXI who experienced multiple tooth extractions. It also conducted a review of the literature and treatment outline. We preoperatively administered fresh frozen plasma (FFP) before the tooth extraction and continued to transfuse FFP at the rate of 2 units per day from day 1 to 4 of admission. The extractions were divided into two parts, maxillary and mandibular and the teeth extracted on days 2 and 4 of admission. The patient was discharged on day 6 of admission because there was good progress and no postoperative bleeding. Therefore, it was possible to perform multiple tooth extractions without abnormal bleeding in the oral cavity; the chance of bleeding was reduced by administering FFP and increasing local hemostasis in CFXI patients.
