Afibrinogenaemia usually induces a bleeding tendency during infancy, whereas protein C deficiency increases susceptibility to thrombosis in children or adolescence. Mutations of these genes have been, therefore, established as independent risk factors for coagulation disorders. We describe the homozygous mutation of the fibrinogen alpha chain gene and additional heterozygous mutation of the protein C gene in a male infant who showed prolonged umbilical bleeding after birth. On examination, the plasma fibrinogen was undetectable, and the activity and antigen level of protein C were reduced. The patient showed no fibrinogen Aalpha chain as well as Bbeta and gamma chains by Western blotting. The sequencing analysis showed the homozygous deletion of 1238 bases from intron 3 at position 2008 to intron 4 at position 3245 in the fibrinogen alpha chain gene. Both parents were heterozygous carriers of this mutation. In this patient, an additional mutation was also detected in the protein C gene: the heterozygous deletion of exon 7 at position 6161-6163 or 6164-6166, resulting the deletion of one amino acid (Lys150 or 151). His mother was also a carrier of this mutation. As the simultaneous mutation of the fibrinogen alpha chain and protein C genes has not been previously reported, the influence of the interaction between these two mutations on the clinical manifestations of this patient should be carefully monitored for a long period.
