Protein C (PC) deficiency is a heritable or acquired risk factor for thrombophilia, with presentations varying from asymptomatic to venous thromboembolism to neonatal purpura fulminans, a life-threatening disorder. Hereditary PC deficiency is caused by mutation in the PC (PROC) gene located on chromosome 2q14.3.
