| Abstract |
|
Glanzmann’s thrombasthenia is rare congenital bleeding disorder of autosomal recessive trait.
We experienced two cases of Glanzmann’s thrombasthenia in brother. The mother and elder
brother had no history of bleeding tendency. But 10 year-old and 7 year-old younger brothers had
frequent epistaxis, gum bleeding and easy bruisability.
On platelet aggregation test, mother and elder brother appeared normal responses, but the younger
brothers appeared no responses to ADP, epinephrine and collagen, with normal response to ristocetin.
We report two cases of Glanzmann’s thrombasthenia in brother with review of literatures briefly. |
| Key Words:
Glanzmann’s thrombasthenia, Platelet aggregation test |
