Coagulopathy
Underlying mechanism still remain unclear
Severe bleeding happens only rarely in children and
thrombotic complication are not seen
APTT >>, fibrinogen and thrombocytopenia
Evidence of classic DIC is not convincing
Fibrinolytic activity due to:
direct interaction between DV and plasminogen
Plasminogen cross reactive antibody

Summary
Thrombocytopenia:
Production
Destruction (complement dependent, cross
reactivity)
Consumption
Coagulopathy :
DIC
Fibrinolysis
