In this study, we aimed to present the case of a patient with Glanzmann’s thrombasthenia (GT) which is a hereditary disorder characterized by defective platelet function. A twenty-six-year old woman with GT who underwent cesarean section due to labor arrest and persisting vaginal bleeding despite receiving 18 unit of random platelet concentrates, 6 units of apheresis platelet concentrates, and 2 units of erythrocyte suspension. Since patients with GT are at high risk for massive bleeding during and after delivery, they should give birth under close monitoring in advanced healthcare centers where experienced hematologists are available.(The Medical Bulletin of Haseki 2014; 52: 208-11
