Clinical Studies of Hemorrhagic Diathesis in Liver Diseases

Factor 13 deficiency with severe hemorrhagic diathesis.

A HEMORRHAGIC DIATHESIS due to a congenital deficiency of fibrin stabilizing factor (f.s.f.) was first described in 1960 by Duckert et al.1 Five other cases were discovered since, in different cOuntries.2'6 The fibrin stabilizing factor (Lorand-Laki factor, fibrinase of Loewy), known and investigated in vitro for almost 20 years,7-11 was accepted in 1963 as one of the clotting factors-i.e. Fact...

postnatal studies of bats (pipistrellus kuhlii and miniopterus schreibersii) & histomorphology and histochemistry studies of organs and diseases of (neurergus microspilotus and n. kaiseri)

1. to determine whether difference in birth body mass influenced growth performance in pipistrellus kuhlii we studied a total of 12 captive-born neonates. bats were assigned to two body mass groups: light birth body mass (lbw: 0.89 ± 0.05, n=8) and heavy birth body mass (hbw: 1.35 ± 0.08, n=4). heavier body mass at birth was associated with rapid postnatal growth (body mass and forearm length) ...

Successful interventional management of abdominal compartment syndrome caused by blunt liver injury with hemorrhagic diathesis

We report that a case of primary abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS), caused by blunt liver injury under the oral anticoagulation therapy, was successfully treated. Transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) was initially selected, and the bleeding point of hepatic artery was embolized with N-Butyl Cyanoacylate (NBCA). Secondary, percutaneous catheter drainage (PCD) was performed for massive he...
