This comprehensive book offers an in-depth overview of laboratory diagnoses for both inherited and acquired thrombophilias, illuminating the complex interplay between genetic and environmental factors that contribute to venous thromboembolism.
Beginning with foundational concepts in thrombophilia testing, the book systematically covers the diagnosis of key anticoagulant deficiencies, including protein C, protein S, protein Z, antithrombin, and plasminogen, as well as the critical evaluation of prothrombin G20210A and factor V Leiden mutations and other factors involved in thrombosis. It also addresses acquired thrombophilia, highlighting the significant impact of factors such as hyperhomocysteinemia and the influence of medications, lifestyle choices, and underlying health conditions on thrombosis risk.
