Combination of APC resistance and acquired protein S deficiency in a haemodialysis patient with recurrent A-V shunt thrombosis.

چکیده
Key words: anticoagulation; APC resistance; protein S autosomal dominant trait [6 ] in >90% of cases with APC resistance [7]. Some reports suggested that there deficiency; renal failure; shunt thrombosis must also be another cause for APC resistance apart from the FV Leiden mutation [8]. A recent publication described a new mutation: FV Cambridge [9]. This is

Background and Objective: Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is one of the most common forms of venous thromboembolism (VTE). Deficiency in natural anticoagulant proteins is considered to be the major cause of thrombosis. In the present study, we investigated the incidence of defects in protein S, protein C, antithrombin and resistance to activated protein C (APC-R) in patients with DVT referred to the...
متن کاملLacunar infarction in child with Protein S deficiency: a case report
Abstract Arterial ischemic stroke defines as a new focal neurologic deficit that lasted 24 hours or longer. Stroke is relatively rare in children and incidence of cerebrovascular disease is 1 per 4000 in neonates and 1 per 7000 to 1 per 70000 in older children (1 month to 18 years). Protein S deficiency is one of the causes of the stroke in children. Major manifestations of protein S deficienc...
متن کاملResistance to activated protein C as an additional genetic risk factor in hereditary deficiency of protein S.
Inherited resistance to activated protein C (APC), which is caused by a single point mutation in the gene for factor V, is a common risk factor for thrombosis. In this study, the prevalence of APC resistance in 18 unrelated thrombosis-prone families with inherited protein S deficiency was investigated to determine its role as additional genetic risk factor for thrombosis. In addition, a detaile...
متن کاملIs acquired activated protein C resistance a cardiovascular risk?
Cardiovascular Risk? To the Editor: We have read the article by Kiechl et al1 demonstrating that acquired activated protein C resistance (APC) may be a risk factor for atherosclerosis and arterial thrombosis in whites. We2 previously demonstrated that acquired APC resistance is associated not only with venous thrombosis (deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary thromboembolism) but also with arterial...
متن کاملFactor V Leiden and acquired activated protein C resistance among 1000 women with recurrent miscarriage.
Activated protein C (APC) resistance, both in its congenital form, due to the factor V Leiden mutation, and in its acquired form, are important risk factors for systemic venous thrombosis. In view of the suspected thrombotic aetiology of some cases of recurrent miscarriage, the prevalence of APC resistance was determined among 1111 consecutive Caucasian women with a history of either recurrent ...
