Mesenteric venous thrombosis is due to blood clot in veins that drain blood from the intestine. It may lead to mesenteric ischemia. Protein S deficiency is one of the causes of superior mesenteric vein thrombosis.
A 47 years old male patient presented with pain in the abdomen. Contrast CECT shows filling defect in the superior mesenteric venous thrombosis. Coagulometer showed lower protein S activity than that of normal.
Proper diagnosis is needed for early detection so that proper intervention can be made on time. Anticoagulation and vitamin K antagonists are given.
Though rare, protein S deficiency should be considered a possible cause of mesenteric venous thrombosis.
肠系膜静脉血栓形成是由于从肠道引流血液的静脉中出现血凝块。它可能导致肠系膜缺血。蛋白S缺乏是肠系膜上静脉血栓形成的原因之一。
一名47岁男性患者出现腹部疼痛。增强CT血管造影显示肠系膜上静脉血栓形成有充盈缺损。凝血仪显示蛋白S活性低于正常水平。
需要进行正确诊断以便早期发现,从而能够及时进行适当干预。给予抗凝治疗和维生素K拮抗剂。
尽管罕见,但蛋白S缺乏应被视为肠系膜静脉血栓形成的可能原因。
