What Are the Clinical Implications of Extrinsic Pathway Disruption?
Disruptions in the extrinsic pathway can lead to various clinical manifestations, ranging from bleeding disorders to thrombotic events. In toxicology, recognizing these disruptions is critical for timely intervention. For example, exposure to anticoagulant toxins may require administration of vitamin K or fresh frozen plasma to restore normal clotting function and prevent life-threatening bleeding.
