• arterial thrombosis

The association between hereditary thrombophilia and venous thrombosis is well established but controversial data exist with respect to arterial thrombosis. We performed a pilot study on 31 patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), 21 patients with unstable angina (UA), and 20 healthy volunteers to investigate the role of various hemostatic gene polymorphisms in young Egyptian patients, who survived their first ischemic heart disease (IHD). Thrombophilic gene polymorphisms were tested using multiplex polymerase chain reaction and reverse-hybridization technique. We showed an increased risk of AMI with factor V (FV) Leiden and prothrombin G20210A heterozygosity. The increased risks of UA was associated with GA and A allele of fibrinogen -455GA polymorphism. Conversely, factor XIII (FXIII) Val34Leu GT and T allele were protective in the UA group. Nevertheless, the prevalence of FV H1299R, plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 4G/5G, glycoprotein IIIa C1565T, 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase C677T, and A1298C mutations did not differ between patients with IHD and controls. The data have clinical implications regarding screening and thromboprophylaxis in high-risk individuals younger than 40 years.
