In this retrospective study, we aimed to investigate the clinical and diagnostic relevance of SPS in 208 patients with infertility and unexplained pregnancy loss history. We studied 208 patients that had been referred to undergo a dose-dependent platelet aggregation response to adenosine diphosphate and epinephrine using light transmission aggregometry modified by Mammen during an 11-year period. Patients’ platelet aggregation response was compared with platelet function in 29 female healthy controls of fertile age with no previous history of pregnancy loss.

  • Sticky Platelet Syndrome
    SEMINARS IN THROMBOSIS AND HEMOSTASIS—VOL. 25, NO. 4, 1999 Sticky Platelet Syndrome EBERHARD F. MAMMEN, M.D. ABSTRACT The sticky platelet syndrome (SPS) is an autosomal dominant platelet disorder associated with arterial and venous thromboembolic events. It is characterized by hyperaggregability of platelets in platelet-rich plasma with adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and epinephrine (type I), epinephrine alone (type II), or ADP alone (type III). Clinically, patients may present with angina pectoris, acute myocardial infarc• tion (MI), transient cerebral ischemic attacks, stroke, retinal thrombosis, peripheral arterial thrombosis, and venous thrombosis, frequently recurrent under oral anticoagulant therapy. Clinical symptoms, espe• cially arterial, often present following emotional stress. Combinations of SPS with other congenital throm- bophilic defects have been described. Low-dose aspirin treatment (80 to 100 mg) ameliorates the clinical symptoms and normalizes hyperaggregability. The precise etiology of this defect is at present not known, but receptors on the platelet surface may be involved. Normal levels of platelet factor 4 (PF4) and p-throm- boglobulin in plasma suggest that the platelets are not activated at all times; they appear to become hyper• active upon ADP or adrenaline release. In vivo clumping could temporarily or permanently occlude a ves• sel, leading to the described clinical manifestations. The syndrome appears to be prominent especially in patients with unexplained arterial vascular occlusions. Keywords: Platelets,

Rossi, Piazzale Scuro, 10, 37134 Verona, Italy. Email: [email protected]. Abstract: Thrombophilia, either acquired or inherited, can be defined as a predisposition to developing thromboembolic complications. Since the discovery of antithrombin deficiency in the 1965, many other conditions have been described so far, which have then allowed to currently detect an inherited or acquired predisposition in approximately 60–70% of patients with thromboembolic disorders. These prothrombotic risk factors mainly include qualitative or quantitative defects of endogenous coagulation factor inhibitors, increased concentration or function of clotting proteins, defects in the fibrinolytic system, impaired platelet function, and hyperhomocysteinemia. In this review article, we aim to provide an overview on epidemiologic, clinic and laboratory aspects of both acquired and inherited rare thrombophilic risk factors, especially including dysfibrinogenemia, heparin cofactor II, thrombomodulin, lipoprotein(a), sticky platelet syndrome, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 apolipoprotein E, tissue factor pathway inhibitor, paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria and heparin-induced thrombocytopenia.

Skin punch biopsies taken from the affected areas of erythromelalgia and acrocyanotic compications show typical arteriolar inflammation, fibromuscular intimal proliferation and thrombotic occlusions. If left untreated both microvascular and major thrombosis frequently do occur in thrombocythemia in ET and PV patients, but can easily be cured and prevented by low dose aspirin. The stratification as low, intermediate and high thrombotic risk in the retrospective Bergamo studies has been performed in ET patients not treated with aspirin. The risk of thrombosis in aspirin treated ET and PV is not age dependent when on low dose aspirin, and does recur when not on low dose aspirin during follow-up. The persistence of the Bergamo definition of low, intermediate and high thrombotic risk in the 2012 International Prognostic Score of Thrombosis in ET (IPSET) is applicable for JAK2 mutated ET and PV patients not on aspirin and has led to significant overtreatment with hydroxyurea.

Introduction. Sticky platelet syndrome (SPS) is a prothrombotic disease that is not well recognized and difcult to diagnose. Case Report. We present a case of a 49-year-old diabetic woman on ambulatory peritoneal dialysis therapy who underwent a kidney transplant from living-related donor. Te donor was her sister with whom she shared one haplotype and absence of donor specifc antibodies. Te posttransplant evolution was torpid, developing progressive deterioration, which made us suspect a failure in the graf. Doppler ultrasound reported renal vein thrombosis and hypoperfusion of the renal artery.

  • Sticky Platelet Syndrome
    SEMINARS IN THROMBOSIS AND HEMOSTASIS—VOL. 25, NO. 4, 1999 Sticky Platelet Syndrome EBERHARD F. MAMMEN, M.D. ABSTRACT The sticky platelet syndrome (SPS) is an autosomal dominant platelet disorder associated with arterial and venous thromboembolic events. It is characterized by hyperaggregability of platelets in platelet-rich plasma with adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and epinephrine (type I), epinephrine alone (type II), or ADP alone (type III). Clinically, patients may present with angina pectoris, acute myocardial infarc• tion (MI), transient cerebral ischemic attacks, stroke, retinal thrombosis, peripheral arterial thrombosis, and venous thrombosis, frequently recurrent under oral anticoagulant therapy. Clinical symptoms, espe• cially arterial, often present following emotional stress. Combinations of SPS with other congenital throm- bophilic defects have been described. Low-dose aspirin treatment (80 to 100 mg) ameliorates the clinical symptoms and normalizes hyperaggregability. The precise etiology of this defect is at present not known, but receptors on the platelet surface may be involved. Normal levels of platelet factor 4 (PF4) and p-throm- boglobulin in plasma suggest that the platelets are not activated at all times; they appear to become hyper• active upon ADP or adrenaline release. In vivo clumping could temporarily or permanently occlude a ves• sel, leading to the described clinical manifestations. The syndrome appears to be prominent especially in patients with unexplained arterial vascular occlusions. Keywords: Platelets,
