  • Title: [Case report of congenital afibrinogenemia].
    Author: Leeners JV, Mossakowski J, Kayser S.
    Journal: Klin Padiatr; 1995; 207(1):34-5. PubMed ID: 7885016.
    Abstract:
    It is reported about a case of congenital afirinogenaemia on a newborn female. The treatment is described. Congenital afirinogenaemia is a rare autosomal recessive disorder. There are 250 cases in world literature, mostly with consanguineous parents. Bleeding is usually mild, so that treatment should not be prophylactic, because any blood product might cause complication, like AIDS. Only acute haemorrhage should be treated with fresh frozen plasma or fibrinogen concentrates.
