 Hello,The Recombinant Factor VIIa is used in glanzmann thrombopathy to control bleeding during surgical procedures as an alternative to platelet transfusions.
Next to the important question about your marriage.The condition you have inherited is autosomal recessive.That means that the children could inherit the disease only if the partner also carries the gene.This can happen more in close relation marriages.For example your mother and father have carried the genes with out disease.Now hypothetically,in 4 children,one child would normal,two would be carriers,one child carrying both abnormal genes, at risk of disease.The two otherwise normal would be carriers.
In a nut shell two abnormal genes must be present to risk development of disease in an Autosomal recessive condition.You must get genetic counselling to make sure you have no problems.PCR Analysis is used to detect carriers and also in antenatal diagnosis.
Best wishes.
