- Case 1 involved a 76-year-old man whose factor XIII activity dropped to 29%, requiring treatment with factor XIII concentrate twice for hemoptysis and bloody stool.
- Case 2 involved a 48-year-old woman with a factor XIII level of 39%, who also experienced hemoptysis but recovered well after receiving factor XIII concentrate.
