Core Tip |
This paper describes two closely related patients simultaneously infected by Toxoplasma gondii who concurrently presented their first venous thromboembolism (VTE) episode. Further investigation revealed a factor V Leiden mutation in them both. The association between these 2 morbid conditions suggests that systemic infection/inflammation may enhance the risk of VTE in people carrying this kind of pro-thrombophilia mutation. As far as we know, this is the first report of that association. We believe that this paper provides an insight into this important issue bringing potential help for clinical decision-making processes by doctors around the world. |
