Q

_________ phenomenon is a serious coagulopa-

thy that has been associated with two rare vascular tumors

A

Kasabach-Merritt

characterised by the combination of rapidly growing vascular tumour, thrombocytopenia, microangiopathic haemolytic anaemia and consumptive coagulopathy. The blood clotting disorder results from platelets and other clotting factors of the blood being used up within the tumor.
