Background Patients with congenital afibrinogenemia suffer from spontaneous recurrent severe bleeding. While fibrinogen concentrates are known to effectively treat bleeding episodes, thrombotic complications often occur upon replacement therapy ...

Management of congenital dysfibrinogenemia in pregnancy: A challenging patient case
Afibrinogenemia and congenital dysfibrinogenemia (CD) are rare conditions with limited information available for appropriate management. Previous case reports have demonstrated the safe and efficacious use of fibrinogen replacement therapy (FRT) as a ...

A Novel Frameshift Mutation in the FGA Gene (c.196 delT) Leading to Congenital Afibrinogenemia [PDF]
Background: Congenital afibrinogenemia is characterized by the absence of fibrinogen. Congenital fibrinogen disorders result from several mutations in FGA, FGB, or FGG. Their epidemiology is not well known.

A case of congenital afibrinogenemia complicated with thromboembolic events that required repeated amputations [PDF]
Although congenital afibrinogenemia is a rare autosomal recessive bleeding disorder, it can be more frequently encountered in countries where consanguineous marriages are common.

Heterogeneity of congenital afibrinogenemia, from epidemiology to clinical consequences and management [PDF]
Fibrinogen is a complex protein playing a major role in coagulation. Congenital afibrinogenemia, characterized by the complete absence of fibrinogen, is associated with major hemostatic defects. Even though the clinical course is unpredictable and can be

A novel frameshift mutation in FGA (c.1846 del A) leading to congenital afibrinogenemia in a consanguineous Syrian family [PDF]
Congenital afibrinogenemia is a rare autosomal recessive coagulation disorder characterized essentially by bleeding symptoms, but miscarriages and, paradoxically, thromboembolic events can also occur.

Pharmacokinetics, surrogate efficacy and safety evaluations of a new human plasma-derived fibrinogen concentrate (FIB Grifols) in adult patients with congenital afibrinogenemia [PDF]
Background and aims: Congenital afibrinogenemia is a rare coagulation disorder resulting from a deficiency in fibrinogen. This study assessed the pharmacokinetics, surrogate efficacy and safety of FIB Grifols, a new human plasma-derived fibrinogen ...
