Abstract
The protein C anticoagulant pathway is an important downregulating mechanism of the blood coagulation cascade. We report a 47-yr-old male with Budd-Chiari syndrome and occlusion of the inferior vena cava. His plasma protein C antigen level was decreased to 42%, and its activity was 34%. Other coagulable factors were normal. Protein C deficiency should be considered a possible etiological factor of the Budd-Chiari syndrome.
