Hypofibrinogenemia and the placenta

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1958
Abstract 1. 1. Six cases of hypofibrinogenemia associated with pregnancy have been reported and discussed, with attention to the deposition of fibrin in the placenta of each. Four of these were of the dead fetus syndrome, one of which was actually a missed abortion, and is thought to be the first such case described.

Etiology and management of hypofibrinogenemia in trauma

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2023
Purpose of review Fibrin polymerization is essential for stable clot formation in trauma, and hypofibrinogenemia reduces hemostasis in trauma. This review considers fibrinogen biology, the changes that fibrinogen undergoes after major trauma, and current evidence for lab testing and treatment ...

Hypofibrinogenemia and Thrombocytopenia With Meningococcemia

Abruptio placentae and hypofibrinogenemia

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1958
Abstract From the many published reports dealing with abruptio placentae in the past several years it is apparent that there is considerable difference of opinion concerning many aspects of this syndrome. The precise mechanism by which placental separation is produced is not clear; the pathway by which hypofibrinogenemia develops remains to be proved;

Pathogenesis of Hypofibrinogenemia in Placental Abruption

New England Journal of Medicine, 1959
THE pathogenesis of hypofibrinogenemia associated with placental abruption continues to be a subject of much conjecture. The most commonly proposed explanation has been intravascular coagulation due to the escape of thromboplastin from the products of gestation into the maternal circulation.1 2 3 4 5 6 Fibrinogen destruction resulting from the ...

ETIOLOGY AND MANAGEMENT OF HYPOFIBRINOGENEMIA OF PREGNANCY

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1954
Incoagulable blood as the result of hypofibrinogenemia is an obstetric syndrome of unusual clinical significance. Death from unmanageable hemorrhage may be the penalty. Prompt recognition of the condition and institution of appropriate therapy are obligations of the obstetrician.
