Impaired platelet adhesion

HP:0008352

What it means

An abnormality of adhesion of thrombocytes. Normally, platelets adhere to collagen in the vascular subendothelium within seconds of injury via a receptor made up of glycoprotein Ia and IIa and GPVI and to vWF via receptor GPIb/IX/V. The adherent platelets then release granules that lead to platelet activation and aggregation.
