Overview

The annual thrombotic risks are variable and depend on the underlying thrombophilia.[1]

Natural History

  • Factor V Leiden and Prothrombin G20210A: If left untreated, the annual incidence of incident thrombosis in asymptomatic patients is low (<0.06%). However, the occurrence of recurrent thrombosis can not be predicted in such inherited thrombophilias. [2][3][4]
  • Protein C, Protein S, and Antithrombin deficiencies: These conditions carries an increased risk for recurrent thrombosis in untreated patients. [3][5]
  • Oral contraceptives, hormone replacement therapy, and pregnancy can significantly increase thrombotic risk in patients with underlying thrombophilia.[6]
  • Certain high risk thrombophilias require indefinite anticoagulation. However, such patients on preventive oral anticoagulant therapy for venous thromboembolism still carries the annual incidence of significant bleeds of ~2-3%.[7]

Complications

Table 1: The risk of future thrombosis in patients with thrombophilia:

Thrombotic risk[2] Thrombophilic state
Modest Trauma/General surgery, Age > 60, Immobilization, Pregnancy, Hormone therapies, Factor V Leiden heterozygosity, Prothrombin mutation, Homocysteinemia, Increased factor VIII levels, Increased factor IX levels, Increased factor XI levels
Intermediate Protein C and S deficiency, Dysfibrogenemia
High Malignancy, APLS/Lupus anticoagulant, Myeloproliferative disorders/hyperviscosity, PNH, Orthopedic surgery, Antithrombin deficiency, Factor V Leiden homozygosity

Table 2: The effect of concurrent hormone exposure on incident thrombosis and thrombotic risk in patients with underlying thrombophilia:

Thrombophilic state Annual Incidence (%) Relative Risk
Normal 0.008 1
Factor V Leiden heterozygous 0.06 3-10
Factor V Leiden homozygous 0.5-1 80
Prothrombin G20210A 0.02 1-5
Oral contraceptive (OCP) 0.03 4
OCP and factor V leiden heterozygous 0.3 35
OCP and factor V leiden homozygous 100
OCP and prothrombin G20210A 16
OCP and protein C/S, or antithrombin III deficiency 9.7
Pregnancy 7
Pregnancy and factor V leiden heterozygous 35
Cancer 5
History of venous thrombosis 50
