Factor X inhibitor: a fulminant presentation and fatal course of a rare syndrome in a 59-year-old male.

Abstract:

:Factor X inhibitors are rare. The few cases documented in the literature have occurred after viral prodromes, in association with cancer, or after exposure to antibiotics. Acquired factor X deficiencies are also rare and their etiology is largely unknown. We report a new case of a factor X inhibitor and review prior cases of both factor X inhibitors and non-amyloidosis-related acquired factor X deficiencies.
