Antithrombin III deficiency is a rare hereditary disorder that generally comes to light when a patient suffers recurrent venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism.
This was first described by Egeberg in 1965.[1]
The patients are treated with anticoagulants or, more rarely, with antithrombin concentrate.
In renal failure, especially nephrotic syndrome, antithrombin is lost in the urine, leading to a higher activity of Factor II and Factor X and in increased tendency to thrombosis.
