Two patients with factor XIII deficiency, presenting with bleeding disorder since birth, are reported. The condition is rare and is likely to be missed unless clot solubility in 5 M urea is performed as a screening test in all patients with bleeding disorders. A correct diagnosis is essential as prophylactic management is practicable in this disorder.
