Abstract
The detection of elevated fibrinopeptide A (FPA) level in a patient with the Lesch-Nyhan syndrome complicated with cerebral infarction prompted us to examine FPA level in 3 other patients with the syndrome. FPA level significantly increased in all patients. Fibrinopeptide B beta 15-42 (FPB beta 15-42) level was increased in two, and both beta-thromboglobulin (beta TG) and platelet factor 4 (PF4) levels were elevated in one patient. These results suggest coagulation abnormalities in patients with Lesch-Nyhan syndrome.
