Premenopausal women with bleeding disorders represent a major public health problem. Estimates suggest up to 20% of women with menorrhagia have an underlying bleeding disorder (corresponding to a prevalence of 1.5-4 million American women). Von Willebrand disease (VWD) is the most common bleeding disorder among women with menorrhagia, affecting up to 20% of such patients. Besides menorrhagia, i...

The May-Hegglin Anomaly (MHA) is a rare autosomal dominant giant platelet disorder characterized by abnormally large platelets with defective leucocytes and thrombocytopenia varying degrees of bleeding manifestation. Here we report successful pregnancy outcome in primigravida MHA. (Preterm Pre-labour Rupture Membranes) PPROM mother, abnormalities the extremities due to ABS discussed.

Congenital factor VII deficiency (FVIID) is a rare disorder with a wide range of bleeding manifestations. The disorder does not protect patients against occurrence of thrombosis, and deep vein thrombosis can occur in the setting of surgery and recombinant factor VIIa replacement.

Acquired hemophilia A (AHA) is a rare bleeding disorder, caused by the development of autoantibodies (inhibitor) against endogenous clotting factor VIII (FVIII). common clinical manifestation subcutaneous bleeding, but soft tissue hematomas and excessive post-operative hemorrhages may also occur. diagnosis AHA made in patients presenting with an isolated prolonged activated partial thromboplast...

menorrhagia is the most common symptom that is experienced by women with bleeding disorders. von willebrand disease (vwd) is the most common congenital human bleeding disorder that is manifested as a quantitative deficiency in von willebrand factor (vwf) or dysfunction of this factor. the frequency of vwd is similar in both men and women. however, vwd is more readily detected in women due to th...

conclusions the high prevalence of vwd among our patients was the same as other previous reports, suggesting low awareness about this disease and under diagnosis of mild cases. results mean age of our patients was 32.5 ± 10.6 years. the level of von willebrand factor in 22.5% and von willebrand activity in 19.6% of patients was abnormal. the prevalence of vwd among patients with menorrhagia was...

Blue rubber bleb nevus syndrome (BRBNS) is a rare, severe, sporadically occurring disorder characterized by multiple venous malformations. The most common clinical presentation symptomatic anemia due to GI bleeding, both overt and occult. present study reports 15-year-old female with iron-deficiency refractory therapy. She underwent various unsuccessful investigations find the origin of anemia.

background: immune thrombocytopenia is a hematologic disorder characterized by low platelet count and variable bleeding manifestations due to immune-mediated platelet destruction and/or suppression of platelet production. this study was performed to evaluate characteristics and clinical presentations of adult patients with immune thrombocytopenia and to explore the clinical value of platelet an...

Immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is a bleeding disorder characterized by premature platelet destruction mediated by autoantibodies. We report a 71-year-old ITP patient with concomitant acute coronary syndrome. Cardiac catheterization was performed through the right radial artery and premedicated with immunoglobulin. Left anterior descending artery was stented, followed by clopidogrel treat...

Afibrinogenemia is a rare bleeding disorder which is observed with an incidence of 1:1 000 000. It is an autosomal recessive disease and occurs as a result of mutation in one of the three genes which code the three polypeptide chains of fibrinogen. Basic clinical findings include spontaneous bleeding, bleeding after minor trauma or due to surgery. Splenic rupture in afibrinogenemia has been rep...
