  • Title: [Disturbances of coagulation and fibrinolysis in patients with acute leukemia].
    Author: Rusinowska Z.
    Journal: Pol Tyg Lek; ; 46(48-49):935-7. PubMed ID: 1845712.
    Abstract:
    In 30 patients with acute leukemia--18 with myeloblastic acute leukemia, 1 with promyelocytic acute leukemia, 4 with myelo-monocytic acute leukemia, 4 with chronic myelocytic leukemia exacerbation--coagulation and fibrinolysis tests were performed in different stage of the disease. Most of the disorders were noted in the III period of the disease (significant levels of the factors II, IX decrease, clot contractility weakness and platelets count decrease). I in patients with manifestation of haemorrhagic diathesis and in patients without them disturbances in examined tests were similar, but platelets count in patients with bleeding was always significantly reduced. The main reasons of the bleeding in acute leukemias are thrombocytopenia together with the in coagulation factors.
