Recurrent venous thrombosis - an unusual first presentation of autoimmune polyendocrinopathy syndrome type 3B.
South African Medical Journal 2023 December 32
A 45-year-old female presented with unprovoked recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE), in unusual sites, and pancytopenia, posing a complex diagnostic challenge. Work-up for inherited thrombophilia, antiphospholipid syndrome (APLS) and paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria were unremarkable. Investigations revealed autoimmune thyroid disease, and a mixed iron/vitamin B12 deficiency due to pernicious anaemia and resultant atrophic gastritis. Hyperhomocysteinaemia due to vitamin B12 deficiency was identified as a potential contributor to her recurrent VTE. This case highlights the unusual initial presentation of autoimmune polyendocrinopathy syndrome type 3B (APS-3B) with recurrent thromboembolism, and emphasises the importance of considering hyperhomocysteinaemia in unprovoked and atypical VTE cases.
