description Glanzmann's thrombasthenia is a rare congenital bleeding disorder which is associated with mutations in the genes encoding glycoproteins, gpIIb or gpIIIa resulting in platelet dysfunction. Here we present a case of 10 years old female patient with spontaneous bleeding gums since 4 days seeking dental treatment.
