Abstract excerpt
Glanzmann thrombasthenia is an inherited platelet disorder resulting from defects in the integrin αIIbβ3 complex due to mutations in the ITGA2B or ITGB3 genes. This study aimed to elucidate the molecular and clinical characteristics of Glanzmann thrombasthenia in a Tunisian cohort. Twelve patients from 11 unrelated families were evaluated using clinical examination, platelet function assays, and comprehensive...
