Presentation
Abstract In the present study, the prevalence of thromboembolic events in patients suffering from type I plasminogen deficiency was evaluated. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Pseudomembraneous lesions are present on affected mucous membranes, such as eye, middle ear, pharynx, duodenum, oral cavity, upper and lower respiratory tracts, and female genital tract. [xpertdox.com]
[…] contemporary overview of oral and maxillofacial pathology includes a brief description of each individual lesion or pathologic condition and the kind of pathologic process that it represents, followed by a discussion of its clinical and/or radiographic presentation [books.google.de]
In severe cases with possibly life-threatening multi-organ involvement, true therapeutic options are not available at present. [humpath.com]

Treatment
Some of the commonly used treatment methods include surgical removal of the lesions, IV corticosteroid treatment, topical treatment with heparin, corticosteroids and alpha-chymotrypsin, or cyclosporine, hyaluronidase & azathioprine. [xpertdox.com]
Moreover, a palpebral pseudomembrane stopped growing in one patient and disappeared completely in the other while on the estroprogestinic treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prognosis
[…] includes a brief description of each individual lesion or pathologic condition and the kind of pathologic process that it represents, followed by a discussion of its clinical and/or radiographic presentation, histopathologic features, and its treatment and prognosis [books.google.de]
The prognosis is variable, depending on the extent, location, size, and site of the lesions. [xpertdox.com]
Prognosis In milder cases were only the conjunctivae are involved the visual prognosis is moderate, however, the prognosis for severe cases with multiorgan involvement is very poor. [orpha.net]

Prognosis The prognosis of ligneous conjunctivitis depends on the ability to control the inflammation and recurrence of the pseudomembranes. [eyewiki.aao.org]
Etiology
Etiology Severe HPG is caused by homozygous or compound-heterozygous mutations in the plasminogen gene ( PLG ; 6q26). [orpha.net]
It has also been linked to congenital hydrocephalus and juvenile colloid milium. [1] Etiology Ligneous conjunctivitis may be inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern due to mutations in the plasminogen (PLG) gene and a variety of other genes, associated [eyewiki.aao.org]

Prevention
Two of six patients with hypoplasminogenemia showed thrombotic events, and in one of these symptomatic cases the coexistence of factor V deficiency did not prevent the occurrence of thrombosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
These management options are not completely successful in either the treatment or the prevention regrowth of lesion. The prognosis is variable, depending on the extent, location, size, and site of the lesions. [xpertdox.com]
