Retinal artery and vein thrombotic occlusion during pregnancy: markers for familial thrombophilia and adverse pregnancy outcomes

Figures & data

Table 1 Measures of thrombophilia and hypofibrinolysis^8,16,51 important in the diagnosis of retinal vein and artery thrombosis

PCR assays:

Thrombophilia: Factor V Leiden, G20210A Prothrombin gene, MTHFR C677T and A1298C

Hypofibrinolysis: 4G4G mutation of the plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 gene

Serologic assays:

Thrombophilia; Homocysteine, anticardiolipin antibodies immunoglobulin (Ig)G and IgM, lupus anticoagulant, resistance to activated protein C, factors VIII, XI, antigenic proteins C, S (total and free), and antithrombin III

Abbreviation: PCR, polymerase chain reaction.
