Heterogeneity of Genotype–Phenotype in Congenital Hypofibrinogenemia—A Review of Case Reports Associated with Bleeding and Thrombosis
18 Feb 2022
Abstract excerpt
Congenital fibrinogen disorders are diseases associated with a bleeding tendency; however, there are also reports of thrombotic events. Fibrinogen plays a role in the pathogenesis of thrombosis due to altered plasma concentrations or modifications to fibrinogen's structural properties, which affect clot permeability, resistance to lysis, and its stiffness. Several distinct types of genetic change and pathogenetic...
