Patients with Cushing’s syndrome have been found to demonstrate a reduction in activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), alongside increases in clot lysis time, procoagulant factors (such as factor VIII, von-Willebrand factor and fibrinogen) and fibrinolysis inhibitors (including plasminogen activator-inhibitor-1, thrombin activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor, and alpha-2 antiplasmin) [11,12,17]. The gene discussed is VWF; the disease is Cushing syndrome due to macronodular adrenal hyperplasia.
