General information
Thrombopathia, sometimes called Platelet Function Disorder, is a group of diseases that affect the platelet cells responsible for blood clotting, resulting in a risk of severe and uncontrolled bleeding. This variant of the disorder, found in the Basset Hound, is caused by a recessive mutation to the gene RASGRP2. Closely related variants have been observed in the Eskimo Spitz and Landseer.
Clinical features
Affected dogs may present with severe and recurrent bleeding from the gums, episodes of lameness, or severe anemia. Blood analysis will confirm dramatically decreased platelet activity.
