Clinical and laboratory phenotypes associated with the aspirin-like defect: a study in 17 unrelated families.

Abstract excerpt

Aspirin-like defect (ALD) is a rare, mostly autosomal dominant inherited dysfunction of the intraplatelet arachidonic acid (AA) pathway leading to impaired thromboxane A2 signalling. We aimed to establish diagnostic criteria for ALD diagnosis and present clinical and laboratory phenotypes of 52 individuals from 17 unrelated families.
