Abstract excerpt
In order to define the thrombophilic conditions related to activated protein C resistance (APC-R) and protein S (PS) deficiency and to detect the possible combination of these defects, we studied nine unrelated patients selected because of low anticoagulant response to APC and reduced PS activity with at least one first degree relative having the same coagulation feature. The mean APC ratio was 0.64 (normal...
