Mesenteric artery thrombosis: a case report of combined protein S and protein C deficiency.
Am J Hematol. 1998; (3): 246-7
Individuals with more than one defect in natural coagulant/anticoagulant systems have been postulated to be at an increased risk for thrombotic events. We report a case of combined protein S and C deficiency in a young woman, which resulted in fatal arterial mesenteric thrombosis. The role of coagulation defects in arterial thrombosis is discussed.
