Glanzmann Thrombasthenia
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Glanzmann disease, also known as Glanzmann thrombasthenia, is a hereditary disorder in which the platelets do not group together properly, making it hard for the blood to stop bleeding.
Common symptoms: Bruises that appear easily, bleeding from the gums or nose, and prolonged bleeding after minor injuries or procedures.
Origin: It is genetic in nature and usually shows up from childhood.
Who evaluates it? The hematologist is the specialist who studies platelet function and clotting, and defines the patient's follow-up. If bleeding is frequent or hard to control, the prudent thing is to seek specialized care in time.
