Lack of correlation between delayed traumatic intracerebral haematoma and disseminated intravascular coagulation.

Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation in a Case of Brucellosis Misdiagnosed as Thrombotic Thrombocytopenia Purpura

Subcortical hemorrhage in disseminated intravascular coagulation associated with sepsis.

Cranial CT features of two patients with intracerebral hemorrhages in the setting of sepsis and disseminated intravascular coagulation are reported. Multiple predominantly subcortical hemorrhages were seen. This pattern of cerebral hemorrhage should raise suspicion of disseminated intravascular coagulation as an underlying cause.

Intravascular lymphomatosis.

Intravascular lymphomatosis (IVL) is a rare angiotrophic large cell lymphoma producing vascular occlusion of arterioles, capillaries, and venules. Antigenic phenotyping shows that these lymphomas are mostly of B cell type, and less commonly T cell or Ki-1 lymphomas. The central nervous system and skin are the two most commonly affected organs; patients usually present with progressive encephalo...

Plasma Fibrinogen and D-dimer in Children With Sepsis: A Single-center Experience

Background & Objectives:  In sepsis, enhanced fibrin formation, impaired fibrin degradation, and intravascular fibrin deposition lead to a prothrombotic state. The current study aimed at measuring various coagulation parameters to predict an early marker for disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). Methods: The current prospective s...

Disseminated intravascular coagulation with intracranial haematoma in neonatal congenital syphilis.

Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) although a well known complication in neonatal sepsis is extremely rare in congenital syphilis and there are scanty reports of this entity in the literature. Intracranial bleeding following DIC in neonatal congenital syphilis is even rarer, and has been reported only once earlier. We are reporting the second case of neonatal DIC with intracranial hae...
