Article Synopsis
- Glanzmann's thrombasthenia (GT) is a rare genetic disorder leading to poor platelet function, causing varying degrees of bleeding, and even intracranial bleeding is uncommon.
- The study details two patient cases: a 9-year-old girl with a spontaneous epidural hematoma and a 20-year-old man with a subarachnoid hemorrhage following a car accident, both of whom received conservative management.
- The findings suggest that patients with GT experiencing intracranial hemorrhage can be effectively managed through careful observation and treatment involving platelet transfusions and certain medications without immediate surgery.
