Severe menorrhagia due to Glanzmann thrombasthenia treated with hydrothermal ablation

Glanzmann thrombasthenia is a rare platelet disorder inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. Abnormal uterine bleeding is a common problem in women with the disease. Medical management may not always be effective and further treatment may be necessary. Two women underwent endometrial ablation with a continuous-flow circulating hydrothermal ablator. After follow-up of 12 and 18 months, both women remained without abnormal uterine bleeding.
