Definition
This section has been translated automatically.

This is a congenital, autosomal-recessive inherited deficiency of plasminogen, the precursor of plasmin. Due to this deficiency, too little plasmin is available for endogenous fibrinolysis. There may also be genetic defects in the plasmin that lead to reduced functions (dys-forms). Many genetic variants of such plasminogen mutations have been described, named after the cities of their discovery.
