BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Deficiency of the free fraction of protein S has been associated with arterial or venous stroke. The pathogenesis of vascular occlusion in patients with protein S deficiency is not known. We present two cases of cerebral infarction and deficiency of protein S in which the subjects had progressive intracranial occlusions.
CASE DESCRIPTION: A 16-year-old girl was admitted because of left brain stem infarction and protein S deficiency. Cerebral angiography disclosed stenosis of the right intracranial vertebral artery and occlusion of the left posterior cerebral artery. A second angiogram performed 18 months later disclosed occlusion of the right vertebral intracranial artery. In the second case, a 17-year-old girl was admitted because of left hemispheric cerebral infarction and protein S deficiency. Cerebral angiography showed stenosis of the left anterior cerebral artery, left supraclinoid internal artery, and left middle cerebral artery. A second cerebral angiogram performed 5 months later disclosed occlusion of the left anterior cerebral artery and poor hemispheric perfusion through the left middle cerebral artery.
CONCLUSIONS: Based on our cases, we postulate that some patients with prothrombotic states may develop progressive intracranial arterial occlusions, possibly secondary to a permanent thrombogenic stimulus. We suggest routinely searching for prothrombotic states in young patients with intracranial occlusion, especially if the occlusion is progressive and other causes are not obvious.
