Abstract:
Antithrombin III deficiency is an autosomal dominant disorder, which is manifested by recurrent venous thromboembolisms, such as: deep vein thrombosis and/or pulmonary embolism, but arterial embolisms are very rare. We report a case of a patient with hereditary antithrombin III deficiency, manifested by myocardial infarction and deep vein thrombosis.
