Individuals harboring JAK2 V617F mutation, regardless of MPN type, were at higher risk of VTE (OR=5.15, 95%CI: 1.16-22.90, P=0.024), mainly deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
The presence of JAK2(V617F) mutation should be considered per se a prothrombotic state for cerebral, coronary and peripheral microvascular disturbances and for SVT but not for deep vein thrombosis.
