tranexamic acid and Telangiectasia, Hereditary Hemorrhagic

tranexamic acid has been researched along with Telangiectasia, Hereditary Hemorrhagic in 24 studies

Tranexamic Acid: Antifibrinolytic hemostatic used in severe hemorrhage.

Telangiectasia, Hereditary Hemorrhagic: An autosomal dominant vascular anomaly characterized by telangiectases of the skin and mucous membranes and by recurrent gastrointestinal bleeding. This disorder is caused by mutations of a gene (on chromosome 9q3) which encodes endoglin, a membrane glycoprotein that binds TRANSFORMING GROWTH FACTOR BETA.
