Abstract
Hypodysfibrinogenemia, the least frequently reported congenital fibrinogen disorder is characterized by low circulating levels of a dysfunctional protein, and is associated with phenotypic features of both hypo- and dysfibrinogenemia. Herein, we report an adolescent male with unprovoked venous thromboembolism and hypodysfibrinogenemia. Patient had recurrent, progressive thrombosis despite therapeutic anticoagulation with both low molecular weight heparin and warfarin. He had clinical and radiological improvement after transition to a direct thrombin inhibitor. Sequencing of the FGG gene identified a novel heterozygous mutation, c.1075G>T. Structural visualization of the identified variant was pursued and suggested that the mutation likely destabilizes the Ca2+ -binding site of fibrinogen resulting in pathogenicity.
