Additional imaging findings and patient characteristics, including alpha-fetoprotein serum level, can help determine the probability of a nodule being HCC in patients with BCS.
Based on the high alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) level and the ultrasonography findings, the patient was diagnosed as having hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with a RHV, IVC, and RA tumor thrombus and secondary Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS).
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).
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.
Chronic BCS children were analysed in four subgroups: (i) SI: successful intervention (primary or secondary stent patency) (ii) PO: poor outcome (refractory stent block or requirement of liver transplantation), (iii) NU: naïve unintervened (awaiting RI) and (iv) DBI: died before intervention.
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 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 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.
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.
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.
Factor V Leiden was the most common risk factor, i.e., 14 of 53 (26.4%) in BCS cases followed by protein C, as compared with PVT cases, i.e., 2 of 33 (6.06%) and controls, i.e., 5 of 223 (2.3%).
Associations of coagulation factor V Leiden and prothrombin G20210A mutations with Budd-Chiari syndrome and portal vein thrombosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
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.
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.
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.
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).
In conclusion, several DEGs including secreted protein acidic and cysteine rich, lipocalin‑2, GFI1B and proteasome‑associated DEGs may be associated with the pathological process of BCS.
