Budd-Chiari syndrome

Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) is caused by obstruction of hepatic venous outflow involving either the hepatic veins or the terminal segment of the inferior vena cava.

Lupus anticoagulant

Presence of lupus anticoagulant (LA) autoantibodies. LA represent a heterogeneous group of autoantibodies, IgG, IgM, or a mixture of both classes, that interfere with standard phospholipid-based coagulant tests (this is only an in vitro phenomenon, LA do not cause reduction of coagulation in vivo). The antibodies are directed against plasma proteins which also bind to phospholipid surfaces.

Liver Transpl Surg. 1999;5(2):96-100.
We report 6 patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome associated with factor V Leiden mutation combined with another acquired thrombophilic state (myeloproliferative disorder and lupus anticoagulant in 3 cases) and without another thrombophilic disorder in the other 3 cases.

Gut. 1994;35(7):1004-6.
The case of a 20 year old woman is reported with Budd-Chiari syndrome in whom lupus anticoagulant and anticardiolipin antibodies were shown; treatment with oral anticoagulants induced a considerable improvement.

In conclusion patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome should be tested for lupus anticoagulants and anticardiolipin antibodies, Budd-Chiari syndrome resulting from this cause may have a good response to treatment with oral anticoagulants; this treatment should be maintained permanently, and pregnancy in such patients may initiate serious difficulties.

We believe that the Budd-Chiari syndrome was part of her tendency for thrombosis, induced by the presence of a lupus anticoagulant.

No medical condition known to predispose to an increased thrombotic tendency could be identified, and the presence of the lupus anticoagulant in the patient's plasma may provide an explanation for his hypercoagulability and development of the Budd-Chiari syndrome.
