Abstract excerpt
Glanzmann's thrombasthenia is a bleeding disorder characterized by a decrease or absence of the functional platelet membrane glycoprotein (GP) complex, GPIIb/IIIa (alpha IIb beta 3). We describe a new deletion-insertion mutation in the GPIIb gene causing type I Glanzmann's thrombasthenia in two s...
