ABSTRACT
We examined the incidence of thrombophilia in deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Of 38 cases, we found 4 cases of protein C abnormality, 2 cases each of protein S abnormality and lupus anticoagulant, 1 case of antithrombin III abnormality. The total incidence was 23.7%, whereas only 2 cases (6.2%) of plasminogen abnormality were found among 32 healthy individuals. The incidence of thrombophilia was apparently higher among patients with DVT than that of healthy subjects, although the incidence of Japanese DVT was lower than that of Caucasian DVT, as previously reported. By SSCP analysis in one case of protein C abnormality, we demonstrated an abnormality of exon 9-3. To establish laboratory diagnosis of thrombophilia, it is recommended that (1) severe liver diseases, DIC, and oral anticoagulant be ruled out, (2) abnormality be confirmed by repeated examination, (3) family study determine inheritance mode, if possible. It was strongly suggested that laboratory examination of thrombophilia should be routinely applied to cases of venous thrombosis including DVT, not only for diagnostic interest but also for appropriate treatment of these cases.
