Abstract |
Glanzmann’s Thromboasthenia is a rare autosomal recessive hemorrhagic disorder characterized
by chronic nonthrombocytopenic purpura, a prolonged bleeding time, and deficient or absent clot
retraction. The major underlying abnormality is defective first phase aggregation of platelets, which
are unresponsive to ADP in any concentration.
The authors experienced one case of Glanzmann’s Thromboasthenia in a 8 year 10 month old
female, who had frequent epistaxis and gingival bleeding. Platelets of patient showed complete
absence of aggregation in response to ADP, collagen and epinephrine.
The review of the literature was made briefly.
