Prothrombin gene mutation (G20210A) in healthy Centenarians.
A recently described genetic variant of the prothrombin gene (G to A transition at nucleotide position 20210) is associated with an increased risk of venous thrombosis (1). The 20210A prothrombin allele may precipitate cerebral ischemia or myocardial infarction in young patients with known prothrombotic abnormalities (2, 3). Similarly, it has been demonstrated that factor V Leiden further incre...

متن کاملVenous intestinal ischemia due to G20210A mutation of prothrombin gene.
Venous intestinal ischemia is a relatively rare disease, which has some predisposing factor up to 80 % of cases. These factors may be temporary or permanent. Cancer, immobilization, trauma, intraabdominal infections, or oral contraceptives are temporary factors. Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria and hypercoagulability states as factor V Leiden, G20210A mutation in prothrombin gene, C677T meth...
متن کاملProthrombin Gene G20210A Mutation in Acute Deep Venous Thrombosis Patients with Poor Response to Warfarin Therapy
AIM The pathogenesis of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) involves an interaction between hereditary and acquired factors. Prothrombin gene mutation is one of the hereditary risk factors. We evaluated the frequency of the prothrombin gene mutation in patients with DVT and its relation to oral warfarin anticoagulant therapy response. METHODS Prothrombin gene mutation was looked for in 40 DVT patien...
