Inherited protein C deficiency, protein S deficiency and hyperhomocysteinaemia in a patient with hereditary spherocytosis

C P Taylor et al. Clin Lab Haematol. 1999 Jun.

Abstract

We report a family with hereditary spherocytosis in whom there is, in addition, a cluster of genetic predispositions to thrombosis. Although inherited prothrombotic abnormalities are prevalent in the general population, the likelihood of this combination of abnormalities being found in a single family is extremely low. The management of such high risk individuals is discussed.
