“…Hiperkoagülabilite durumlarında hastalar genel olarak tekrarlayan venöz tromboz riski altındadır. Ancak literatürde koroner arterlerin ve aortanın tutulduğu arteryel tromboz atakları gelişen vakalar da bildirilmiştir (4,9). Bizim vakamızın özgeçmişinde, arteryel veya venöz tromboza bağlı gelişmiş herhangi bir hastalık öyküsü yoktur.…”

“…Abdominal aort total oklüzyonunun tedavisi; acil şartlarda trombozun aspirasyonu, seçilmiş vakalarda cerrahi, heparinizasyon ve antikoagülan tedaviyi içermektedir (4,5,9). Tedavi başarısı erken müdahale ve kollateral akımların ne kadar yeterli olduğuna bağlıdır.…”

Introduction: The risk of thrombosis is increased in hypercoagulability. Hypercoagulability can be inherited or acquired. Here, we want to present a patient with inherited hypercoagulability who came to the emergency department by walking and was diagnosed with total abdominal aortic thrombosis and acute renal artery thrombosis. Case Report: A 48-year-old female patient presented to our emergency medicine department with a history of right flank pain for 30 minutes. The pain had started abruptly and was continuous. She came to the emergency medicine department by walking. The contrast-enhanced abdominal computed tomography showed right renal infarction, right artery occlusion, and abdominal aortic thrombus at the level of the iliac bifurcation. Conclusion: Abdominal aortic thrombus is a relatively rare complication of hypercoagulability. Total occlusion of the aorta is generally presented with pain, pallor, weakness, and numbness of the lower limbs. In our case, there was none of these signs due to the blood flow supplied by collaterals. It is a challenge to diagnose total aortic occlusion in a patient that comes to the emergency department by walking.

Coronary artery bypass grafting is one of the most common surgeries performed among all elective cardiac surgery operations. Starting from the first operations, thrombosis not only in the coronary arteries, but also in the venous system was the subject of attention. Over the past two decades it has become evident that the hypercoagulable state, or socalled thrombophilia is multifactorial, genetically determined disorder of the hemostatic system. This article provides an overview of studies on the role of genetic polymorphisms in the development of thrombosis after coronary artery bypass grafting.

Life-threatening aortic thrombosis in a trauma patient homozygous for factor V Leiden mutation: Case report

Abstract: We report a case of near fatal aortic thrombosis in a trauma patient homozygous for mutation of Factor V Leiden. He responded well to vascular surgery and intensive care unit management and was discharged successfully from the hospital one month later.
