Donors with PC or PS deficiency were divided into severe (&lt; 40%), moderate (40%\u201349%), and mild (50%\u201359%) deficiencies and near\u2010normal (&gt; 60%) groups based on functional activity levels.

One donor with severe PS deficiency had a PROS1 mutation, and two donors (one from the near\u2010normal group and one from the mild group) had PROC mutations. None of the 16 donors experienced any thrombotic complications. Three recipients experienced thrombotic complications that were not directly associated with donor thrombophilia.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The incidences of PC and PS deficiencies among liver donors are significant and should not be overlooked.
