Studies on Agammaglobulinemia VI. Hemostasis in Patients with Agammaglobulinemia.
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1956 Summary and Conclusions1. The activity or concentration of the clotting factors recognized at the present time have been determined in 7 patients with agammaglobulinemia. Four of the patients had the congenital-hereditary form of agammaglobulinemia and three had the acquired form of the disease. 2.
