[Kasabach-Merritt syndrome as viewed from a surgical and stomatological standpoint (author's transl)].
The Kasaach-Merritt syndrome involves the very infrequent symptom complex of "giant hemangioma--thrombocytopenia--coagulation disorder". Hemorrhagic diathesis is here based on consumption coagulopathy. This paper reports upon secondary bleeding after extraction of a tooth in a 25-year-old male affected with this syndrome. Continuation or initiation of anticoagulant therapy is recommended for surgical stomatological treatment on an inpatient basis, and measures to be taken in connection with wound treatment are described.
