The combination of a propensity for venous thrombosis and seizures has been reported in two unrelated kindreds. Transmission is autosomal recessive. It results from a point mutation of PIGM, which reduces transcription of PIGM and blocks mannosylation of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI), leading to partial but severe deficiency of GPI.
Features include common findings: Delayed speech and language development, Generalized non-motor (absence) seizure, Atonic seizure, and Enlarged liver (hepatomegaly) and others. 11 total HPO annotations.

Brain and nerves | 3 | Delayed speech and language development, Generalized non-motor (absence) seizure, Atonic seizure |
PIGM function has not been fully characterized.
Hypercoagulability syndrome due to glycosylphosphatidylinositol deficiency has limited evidence linking it to mutations in the PIGM gene on chromosome 1.
Genetic testing for PIGM is available. Testing is considered research-grade for diagnosis.
Biomarker and diagnostic research for hypercoagulability syndrome due to glycosylphosphatidylinositol deficiency has been reported in the published literature.
Phenotype severity distribution: 7 common features.
Estimated prevalence: <1 in 1,000,000 (VERY_RARE).
No clinical trials have been registered for hypercoagulability syndrome due to glycosylphosphatidylinositol deficiency.
13 publications have been identified in PubMed for hypercoagulability syndrome due to glycosylphosphatidylinositol deficiency. Research spans Case Report / Case Series (54%), Review / Meta-Analysis (15%), and Gene Therapy / Novel Therapeutics (15%).
