Protein C deficiency is genetic and can run in families. It is a protease that is part of the anticoagulant systems that are in place to keep coagulation (blood clot formation) in check. Excess clotting can occur when there is a mutation or change in one of the genes that code for the many factors that help blood to clot when necessary. This can lead to excess venous thrombosis (clotting).

1)Thrombosis: Blood clot occurring in a blood vessel
2)Warfa rrin induced skin necrosis
3)Pur pura fulminans occurring especially in children, with hypotension, fever, and disseminated intravascular coagulation, usually following an infectious illness
4)Deep vein thrombosis: The formation of a thrombosis in the deep veins usually within the legs
