Abstract |
Congenital hypofibrinogenemia is a rare congenital bleeding disorder, inherited by autosomal
dominant or recessive trait.
We experienced one case of congenital hypofibrinogenemia in 4 year-old female patient with chief
complaints of headache and ecchymosis. History of continuous umbilical cord bleeding and frequent
bleeding tendency against minor trauma were revealed on her past medical history. On laboratory
data, bleeding time, platelet aggregation test were normal and factor assays were all within normal
limit. PT, aPTT were markedly prolongated and fibrinogen level was decreased to 23 mg/dl.
Subdural hematoma and communicating hydrocephalus were detected on brain CT film.
We report 1 case of congenital hypofibrinogenemia with a brief review of literatures. |
