What is the definition of Familial Hypofibrinogenemia?
Familial hypofibrinogenemia is an inherited (genetic) disorder of blood clotting characterized by mild bleeding after trauma or surgery due to decreased blood plasma fibrinogen (clotting factor). Slightly more than 50% of individuals who inherit familial hypofibrinogenemia are the product of closely-related parents (consanguinity).
What are the symptoms of Familial Hypofibrinogenemia?
Some individuals with familial hypofibrinogenemia do not experience any symptoms unless injured or after undergoing surgery. Symptoms of familial hypofibrinogenemia may include nosebleeds, gastrointestinal bleeding, bleeding of the gums, miscarriages in women, and, rarely, liver disease due to bleeding.
