Abstract

The proposed factors of thrombosis are; changes in vascular wall, disturbance in blood flow pattern and changes in blood components. Coagulation disorders usually cause thromboembolic events. Arterial thromboembolic events are rarely defined. Increase in factor VIII activitiy is reported to be related with arterial tromboembolism. Here we present a case of inferior myocardial infarction without any common cardiovascular risk factors except the increased activity of factor VIII.

Özet

Trombozun gelişmesinde rol oynayan faktörler; damar duvarı değişiklikleri, kan akımındaki bozukluklar ve koagulasyon mekanizmasındaki değişikliklerdir. Koagulasyon bozuklukları sıklıkla venöz tromboembolik olaylara neden olmaktadır. Arteryal tromboembolik olaylara nadiren rastlanmaktadadır. Faktör VIII aktivite artışının arteryal tromboembolismle ilişkili olabileceği bildirilmiştir. Biz de klasik kardiyovasküler risk faktörü bulunmayan faktör VIII aktivite artışı saptadığımız inferior myokard infartüslü bir vaka sunmaktayız.
