BLEEDING IN OTORINOLARINGOLOGY - SYMPTOM OF COAGULOPATHY

Abstract

Coagulopathy is a disorder of blood clotting. There are hereditary and acquired coagulopathies. It can be manifested at any age. The main symptoms are spontaneous bleeding and prolonged or excessive bleeding after injuries or operation. In the ENT region, repeated nose bleeding, prolonged bleeding after tonsillectomies, adenoidectomies, teeth extractions and injuries are seen. In such cases we have to consider coagulopathies as a factor for differential diagnoses. Three patients from our ENT ward are presented, where coagulopathies are diagnosed
