El hígado sintetiza la mayoría de los factores
de coagulación, con producción exclusiva del fi-
brinógeno (factor I), protrombina (factor II) y fac-
tores V, VII, IX y X. En la insuficiencia hepática la
di´sminución de estos factores acarrea coagulopa-
tía. El hígado también sintetiza una pequeña frac-
ción del factor VIII. Los factores II, VII, IX y X son
glicoproteínas cuya síntesis es dependiente de la
absorción de vitamina K, encontrándose disminu-
ídos en presencia de colestasis. El factor VII ha sido
utilizado como excelente marcador de función he-
pática y el factor V ha sido empleado para indicar
trasplante hepático en presencia de hepatitis ful-
minante o subfulminante
