  • Title: [Consumption coagulopathy during pregnancy: a case of afibrinogenemia during the second trimester].
    Author: Debiéve F, Gibon M, Thomas K, Hubinont C.
    Journal: J Gynecol Obstet Biol Reprod (Paris); 1995; 24(8):860-2. PubMed ID: 8636622.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of a membrane disruption at 19 weeks 3 days of gestation complicated by a consumption coagulopathy with clotting tests suggesting primary fibrinogenolysis rather than a disseminated intravascular coagulation usually seen in such cases. A review of the literature revealed 5 cases of coagulopathy during the second trimester of pregnancy among which only two were suspected to be associated with primary fibrinogenolysis. Management of this coagulopathy is discussed.
