Overview
- Thrombophilia may be caused by either acquired, inherited, or, more commonly, a combination of both conditions.
- The most common forms of inherited thrombophilia are Factor V Leiden (20-50% prevalence in patients with recurrent venous thrombosis) and prothrombon G20210A (5-20% prevalence in patients with recurrent venous thrombosis)[1][2].
Causes
Inherited
Common types:
- Factor V Leiden: Factor V is a procoagulant which upon activation promotes the formation of thrombin. In 1994, Bertina and colleagues identified a single nucleotide polymorphism (guanine to adenine substitution in nucleotide 1691), which rendered factor V resistant to proteolytic inactivation by activated protein C[3].
- Prothrombin G20210A: Prothrombin, or factor II, is a precursor to throbmin. A single nucleotide polymorphism (guanine to adenonine substitution in in nucleotide 20210) was first identied by Poort and colleages in 1996. The mutation was associated with elevated prothrombin, thought to be due to increased translation efficiency, and an increased risk of thrombosis[4].
Rare forms:
- Antithrombin III deficiency
- Protein C deficiency
- Protein S deficiency
- Dysfibrinogenemia
- Homozygous homocystinuria
- Increased levels of factor VIII, factor IX, factor XI, or fibrinogen.
Acquired
- Antiphospholipid antibodies
- Renal disease (renal loss of antithrombin)
- High homocysteine levels due to vitamin deficiency (vitamins B6, B12 and folic acid).
- Immobility
- Pregnancy and puerperium
- Oral contraceptive pills
- Malignancy
- Obesity
- African American race
- Hormone replacement therapy
- Surgery and trauma
- Older age
- Myeloproliferative disorders
- Previous thrombosis
