Presentation
They present the case of a forty-one-year-old man who presented with spontaneous bleeding despite normal results from coagulation screening tests, platelet count, platelet aggregation studies, platelet force development, and bleeding time. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Workup
[…] may be necessary to definitively diagnose severe PAI-1 deficiency Plasminogen – activity testing Alpha-2-antiplasmin – activity testing tPA – antigen testing Genotyping ( SERPINE1 ) Consider in patient with recurrent deep vein thrombosis and negative workup [arupconsult.com]
Treatment
MATERIAL AND METHODS: Thrombin generation, fibrinolysis activators and inhibitors were determined before and after 12 months of treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
This study had a number of intermediate dropouts between treatments. In this case, group cross‐over was regarded as treatment failure and cross‐over treatment success was not used in this review. [cochranelibrary.com]
Prognosis
A good prognosis can be achieved if the treatment starts within the first 4 to 5 hours after occlusion. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Identifying symptoms of a stroke quickly and seeking prompt treatment can improve prognosis and maximize patient recovery. Fibrinolytic therapy can be a lifesaving treatment for stroke. [acls.com]
It is possible that the prognosis for some of these patients would have been worse if they had not been closely monitored and promptly treated when decompensation occurred; this notion is supported by the higher rates of death reported in noninterventional [nejm.org]
Etiology
CONCLUSION: In conclusion, acute fibrinolysis SD is not caused by a single etiology, and is clearly associated with PAI-1 activity. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
[…] hemangiomas was first noted in 1940 by Kasabach and Merritt. 1 Since then approximately 50 additional cases have been reported, of which the majority have had sizeable benign hemangiomas, thrombocytopenia, and a severe bleeding diathesis. 2,3 Although many etiologies [jamanetwork.com]
Epidemiology
Most of these were large epidemiological studies assessing thousands of patients. [content.onlinejacc.org]

Pathophysiology
The pathophysiology appears to relate to endothelial injury and hypoperfusion, with several molecular markers identified in playing a role. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prevention
We have conducted a systematic review of the scientific literature to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intrapericardial fibrinolysis in preventing complications of pericardial effusion. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The fibrinolytic system has to be constrained by regulatory mechanisms to prevent it from interfering with the vital process of haemostatic plug formation. [platelets.se]
