Idiopathic cerebral vein thrombosis (iCVT) represents approximately 30% of the cases of cerebral vein thrombosis (CVT). New, inherited - factor V Leiden (FVL) and prothrombin gene mutation (PTHRA20210) - and inherited/acquired - hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) - prothrombotic conditions have been detected recently.
We assessed fasting plasma homocysteine (Hcy) levels and main Hcy determinants, FVL and PTHRA(20210) in 30 patients with documented iCVT and 40 age- and sex-matched healthy subjects.
A strong and significant association of PTHRA(20210) [30% (9/30) vs. 2.5% (1/40) iCVT vs. controls, respectively, p = 0.001; OR = 16.174, p = 0.002] and HHcy [13/30 (43.3%) vs. 4/40 (10%) iCVT vs. controls, respectively; p = 0.002, OR = 6.88, p = 0.002] with iCVT was found.
PTHRA(20210) and HHcy should be considered when screening for thrombophilia and should be assessed in patients with a family or personal history of CVT.
特发性脑静脉血栓形成(iCVT)约占脑静脉血栓形成(CVT)病例的30%。最近发现了新的遗传性——因子V莱顿突变(FVL)和凝血酶原基因突变(PTHRA20210)——以及遗传性/获得性——高同型半胱氨酸血症(HHcy)——这些促血栓形成情况。
我们评估了30例确诊为iCVT的患者以及40名年龄和性别匹配的健康受试者的空腹血浆同型半胱氨酸(Hcy)水平及主要Hcy决定因素FVL和PTHRA(20210)。
发现PTHRA(20210) [iCVT组分别为30%(9/30),对照组为2.5%(1/40),p = 0.001;OR = 16.174,p = 0.002]和HHcy [iCVT组分别为13/30(43.3%),对照组为4/40(10%);p = 0.002,OR = 6.88,p = 0.002]与iCVT之间存在强烈且显著的关联。
在筛查易栓症时应考虑PTHRA(20210)和HHcy,对于有CVT家族史或个人史的患者应进行评估。
