We report the case of a 7-month-old boy who developed hypofibrinogenemia (66.6 mg/dL; reference value, 170-405 mg/dL) during adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) therapy for infantile spasms. Although the patient showed no clinical signs of a bleeding diathesis, we recommend that plasma fibrinogen levels should be monitored during ACTH therapy, which should be discontinued when fibrinogen levels fall below hemostatic levels (60.0mg/dL) or when bleeding tendencies are recognized.
我们报告了一名7个月大男孩的病例,该男孩在接受促肾上腺皮质激素(ACTH)治疗婴儿痉挛症期间出现了纤维蛋白原血症(66.6mg/dL;参考值为170 - 405mg/dL)。尽管该患者没有出血素质的临床症状,但我们建议在ACTH治疗期间监测血浆纤维蛋白原水平,当纤维蛋白原水平降至止血水平以下(60.0mg/dL)或出现出血倾向时,应停止治疗。
