The pathology is deficient or dysfunctional platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (GP IIb/IIIa) complex resulting in bleeding diathesis. <strong>Case Report:</strong> Here in, we report the effectivity of angioembolization with factor VII in a patient with Glanzmann’s thrombasthenia (GT), who presented with recurrent bleeding from duodenal ulcer. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> Angioembolization with added infusion of factor VII, can be considered an equally effective alternate to platelet transfusion in patients of GT, who present with recurrent bleeding.</p> <p> </p>}, number={2}, journal={International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research}, author={Abbas, Ali and Sayani, Raza and Syed Muhammad Mustahsan and Saeed, Anwar}, year={2016}, month={Jun.}, pages={17–21} }
