Résumé
Protein S (PS) is a vitamin K-dependent plasma glycoprotein, and the deficiency of PS increases the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). PS deficiency has been found in 1.5-7% of selected groups of thrombophilic patients. However, the reported PS deficiency patients with portal vein thrombosis are scarce. Our case described a 60-year-old male patient presented portal vein thrombosis with protein S deficiency. Imaging findings of the patient revealed extensive thrombosis involving the portal vein and superior mesenteric vein. His medical history revealed lower extremity venous thrombosis 10 years ago. The level of PS activity was greatly reduced (14%, reference: 55-130%). Acquired thrombophilia caused by antiphospholipid syndrome, hyperhomocysteinemia, or malignancy were excluded. Whole exome sequencing revealed a heterozygous missense variation c.1574C>T, p.Ala525Val in the PROS1 gene. The in-silico analysis of the variant was performed by SIFT and PolyPhen-2. The results showed that the variant is a pathogenic and likely pathogenic variation respectively (SIFT, -3.404; PolyPhen-2, 0.892), the amino acid substitution A525V is presumed to result in unstable PS protein which is degraded intracellularly. Mutation site of the proband and his family members was validated by Sanger sequencing. According to the clinical manifestation, imaging findings, protein S level, and the genetic results, a diagnosis of portal vein thrombosis with PS deficiency was made. To the best of our knowledge, our case is the second reported PS deficiency patient caused by PROS1 c.1574C>T, p.Ala525Val variant in Asia, and the case is also the only reported case with PROS1 c.1574C>T, p.Ala525Val variant presents portal vein thrombosis.

BACKGROUND
Protein S (PS) is a vitamin K-dependent plasma glycoprotein, and the deficiency of PS increases the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). PS deficiency has been found in 1.5-7% of selected groups of thrombophilic patients. However, the reported PS deficiency patients with portal vein thrombosis are scarce.
CASE REPORT AND RESULTS
Our case described a 60-year-old male patient presented portal vein thrombosis with protein S deficiency. Imaging findings of the patient revealed extensive thrombosis involving the portal vein and superior mesenteric vein. His medical history revealed lower extremity venous thrombosis 10 years ago. The level of PS activity was greatly reduced (14%, reference: 55-130%). Acquired thrombophilia caused by antiphospholipid syndrome, hyperhomocysteinemia, or malignancy were excluded. Whole exome sequencing revealed a heterozygous missense variation c.1574C>T, p.Ala525Val in the PROS1 gene. The in-silico analysis of the variant was performed by SIFT and PolyPhen-2. The results showed that the variant is a pathogenic and likely pathogenic variation respectively (SIFT, -3.404; PolyPhen-2, 0.892), the amino acid substitution A525V is presumed to result in unstable PS protein which is degraded intracellularly. Mutation site of the proband and his family members was validated by Sanger sequencing.
CONCLUSION
According to the clinical manifestation, imaging findings, protein S level, and the genetic results, a diagnosis of portal vein thrombosis with PS deficiency was made. To the best of our knowledge, our case is the second reported PS deficiency patient caused by PROS1 c.1574C>T, p.Ala525Val variant in Asia, and the case is also the only reported case with PROS1 c.1574C>T, p.Ala525Val variant presents portal vein thrombosis.
