Anticoagulant Treatment With Rivaroxaban in Severe Protein S Deficiency abstract
We report a case of a 6-year-old girl with severe protein S deficiency due to a homozygous mutation and recurrent episodes of skin necrosis. She developed purpura fulminans at birth and a catheter-related venous thrombosis complicated by massive pulmonary embolism at the sixth day of life. Long-term oral anticoagulant therapy with a vitamin K-antagonist was started with a therapeutic range of t...

متن کاملUse of human protein C concentrates in the treatment of patients with severe congenital protein C deficiency
Protein C is one of the major inhibitors of the coagulation system that downregulate thrombin generation. Severe congenital protein C deficiency leads to a hypercoagulability state that usually presents at birth with purpura fulminans and/or severe venous and arterial thrombosis. Recurrent thrombotic events are commonly seen. From the 1990's, several virus-inactivated human protein C concentrat...
متن کاملSuccessful prophylaxis of intracranial hemorrhage in infants with severe congenital factor VII deficiency.
During the period 1984-1992, 2 severe cases (1 male, 1 female) of congenital F VII deficiency with intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) were referred to the Department of Pediatrics, Siriraj Hospital Bangkok, Thailand at the ages of 1 and 3 months old. They both responded very well to fresh frozen plasma (FFP) transfusion therapy. Subsequently, both had repeated episodes of ICH (repeated ICH) 5 and 6 ...
متن کاملDeficiency of protein C in congenital thrombotic disease.
A family with a history of recurring thrombosis was studied to determine if a plasma protein deficiency could account for the observed disease. Protein C levels in plasma were determined immunologically using the Laurell rocket technique. The propositus, his father, and his paternal uncle, who are severely affected, had 38-49% of normal levels of protein C antigen, whereas unaffected family mem...
