This trial will be conducted in Asia, Europe and the United States of America (USA). The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate long-term safety of rFXIII when administered for prevention of bleeding episodes in children aged between 1 and 6 years with congenital FXIII A-subunit deficiency. This trial is an extension to trial F13CD-3760 (mentor™4, NCT01230021). If applicable the trial will be extended up to maximum 3 years dependent on when recombinant factor XIII will be commercially available in subject's respective country for use in children of 1-6 years of age.

Number of Treatment Emergent (Serious and Non-serious) Adverse Events
An adverse event was described as any untoward medical occurrence in a subject or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product, and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. Treatment emergent adverse events (serious and non-serious), defined as adverse events occurring from first trial product administration to the end of the subject's participation in the trial.
Time frame: Week 0 to end of trial visit (week 173) for a minimum period of 52 weeks.
Percentage of Subjects With Development of Anti-rFXIII Antibodies, Including Inhibitors.
All subjects who received rFXIII were monitored for the frequency of development of anti-rFXIII antibodies. Samples passed through 2 tiers of ELISA testing: an initial screen with a specific cut-off point (including \~5% false positives) and a second confirmatory assay for samples yielding a result above the screening cut-off point. If samples were confirmed as antibody positive in the confirmation assay, an inhibitor assay was also carried out to detect functional inhibitors.
Time frame: Week 0 to end of trial visit (week 173).
