Anaesthetic Management with Thromboelastography in a Patient with Glanzmann Thrombasthenia.
Glanzmann thrombastenia (GT) is a rare disease of an autosomal recessive inheritance characterized with fatal bleeding tendency. The anaesthesiologist should be cognizant of the risk involved and be prepared with necessary measures. In this paper, we present a GT case of a 9-year-old male with hypospadias, which was successfully repaired after platelet transfusions according to the thromboelast...
متن کاملPlatelet function in a patient with thrombasthenia.
PLASMA CLOTTING FACTOR is deficient in most of the “experiments of nature” that have helped to further our understanding of the mechanism of blood coagulation and hemostasis, but in thrombasthenia the defect lies in the platelets which are unable to promote clot retraction. Thrombasthenic patients usually have a mild to moderately severe hemorrhagic diathesis, with a prolonged bleeding time. Th...

متن کاملPerioperative management of a pediatric patient with Glanzmann's thrombasthenia during adenoidectomy.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Glanzmann's thrombasthenia (GT) is an autosomal recessively inherited platelet disorder. There is not any specific treatment. Platelet transfusion is currently the standard treatment when bleeding does not respond to local measures and/or antifibrinolytic treatment, although it may result in alloimmunization. Recombinant activated factor VII (rFVIIa) might be used to av...
متن کاملPerioperative Management of a Patient with Glanzmann's Thrombasthenia for Mitral Valve Repair Under Cardiopulmonary Bypass
A 30-year-old male patient presented with Glanzmann's thrombasthenia and mitral valve prolapse. He was in acute decompensated congestive heart failure due to severe mitral and tricuspid regurgitation. After his cardiac failure had been stabilized, the patient was subjected to mitral and tricuspid valve repair. His transfusion requirements were guided by thrombelastography and his bleeding disor...
