Genetic predisposition to thrombophilia in inflammatory bowel disease [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 2011
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is linked to a definite risk of thromboembolic events (TE), but data on the role of prothrombotic genetic mutations are conflicting.Fourteen genetic factors involved in TE pathogenesis were investigated in a homogeneous cohort of Sicilian patients with IBD with and without history of TE and in healthy controls.
