Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Congenital fibrinogen disorders result from genetic mutations in FGA, FGB, or FGG resulting in quantitative fibrinogen deficiencies (afibrinogenemia or hypofibrinogenemia) or qualitative fibrinogen deficiencies (dysfibrinogenemia). Hypodysfibrinogenemia sharing features with hypo- and dysfibrinogenemia is rare. We performed genetic and functional analyses of a 31-year-old woman with suspected...
