We report the case of a young patient with a coagulation disorder secondary to a mutation of factor V Leiden, who presented with upper digestive bleeding as the first manifestation of Budd Chiari syndrome and who also was associated with myocardial infarction in his past medical history.
We describe the first case of Budd-Chiari syndrome due to homozygosity for factor V Leiden resulting in resistance to activated protein C. This is now recognized as the most common procoagulant disorder, and may account for many cases of Budd-Chiari syndrome previously though to be idiopathic or due to a latent myeloproliferative disorder.
To synthesize the prevalence of CALR mutations according to the different types (i.e., Budd-Chiari syndrome [BCS] and portal vein thrombosis [PVT]) and characteristics (i.e., with and without myeloproliferative neoplasms [MPNs] and JAK2V617F mutation) of SVT patients.
This study aimed to evaluate the association of factor V Leiden (FVL), Janus kinase 2 (JAK2), prothrombin, and methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) mutations with primary BCS.

This case-control study provides the first evidence that an impaired fibrinolytic potential, at least partially caused by elevated PAI-1 levels, is related to the presence of BCS.
These results suggest that the JAK2-V617F mutation occurs after the onset of monoclonal haematopoiesis; thus the V617F mutation of JAK2 may not be the primary event in the induction of BCS.
The relationship between the levels and function of endothelial progenitor cells and factor V Leiden and protein C deficiency in patients with primary Budd-Chiari syndrome.
The purpose of this study was to use JAK2 V617F analysis to re-evaluate the validity of elevated Epo levels as a PV-exclusion criterion in patients with hepatic vein thrombosis [Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS)].

The prevalence of the FVL and prothrombinG20210A mutations were compared between patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome or PVT without cirrhosis and healthy individuals (controls) and between patients with cirrhosis, with and without PVT.
The presence of JAK2V617F in both ECs and hematopoietic cells belonging to BCS patients with PV indicates that ECs from these patients are involved by the malignant process and that in this subpopulation of patients the disease may originate from a cell common to hematopoietic and endothelial cells.
The inherited deficiencies of protein C, protein S, antithrombin III, factor V Leiden mutation, prothrombin gene polymorphism, and antiphospholipids were studied in 53 Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) and 33 portal vein thrombosis (PVT) cases and compared with 223 age- and sex-matched controls.
The incidence and clinical outcomes of JAK2 mutations, novel ten-eleven translocation 2 (TET2) mutations, and the 46/1 haplotype in BCS are unknown for liver transplantation (LT).
The cause of the BCS still being unknown, in October 1996 we performed extensive laboratory investigations concerning states of thrombophilia and found moderately elevated IgG anticardiolipin antibodies (19.7 U/ml) and a resistance against activated protein C caused by heterozygosity for a point mutation of the factor V gene (1691G-->A; factor V Leiden).

The aim of the present study was to develop a reliable and reproducible canine model to mimic human diffuse hepatic vein obstruction (Budd‑Chiari syndrome, BCS).
