"Dysfibrinogenemia Jujuy", associated to bleeding disorders
The aim of this work was to study a young female with moderate bleeding symptoms, to characterize the plasma fibrin and to identify the possible molecular alteration in the fibrinogen of the patient and her family. A dysfibrinogenemia was diagnosed in the patient, the mother and the half-brother, bo...

The aim of this work was to study a young female with moderate bleeding symptoms, to characterize the plasma fibrin and to identify the possible molecular alteration in the fibrinogen of the patient and her family.
