We present a complex case of recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) in a 50\u2010year\u2010old woman with double heterozygosity for FVL and prothrombin G20210A, complicated by heparin\u2010induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) and May\u2013Thurner syndrome. Following a recent orthopedic surgery and a sedentary postoperative course, the patient developed extensive bilateral deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and a saddle pulmonary embolism. Initial anticoagulation with heparin was complicated by progressive thrombocytopenia and confirmed HIT, prompting transition to bivalirudin and subsequently argatroban. Despite therapeutic anticoagulation and multiple interventional procedures, the patient experienced repeated thrombotic events. After increasing the therapeutic aPTT goal for argatroban, she ultimately stabilized and was successfully transitioned to oral apixaban. This case highlights the synergistic risk posed by the combination of inherited thrombophilia, structural venous abnormalities, and acquired prothrombotic conditions. It provides insight into the complex nature of proper anticoagulation strategies in these individual cases. Our use of argatroban with higher aPTT goals may provide guidance in future cases of refractory VTE. Further studies are needed to better understand the optimal therapies and management for patients with hereditary and acquired thrombophilia.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/crh\/3078377","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,29]],"date-time":"2025-09-29T07:37:47Z","timestamp":1759131467000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Supercharged Hypercoagulability: A Case of Heparin\u2010Induced Thrombocytopenia With Thrombosis in a Patient With Double Heterozygous Factor V Leiden and Prothrombin Mutations"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2025","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5985-4559","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yudai","family":"Okabe","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jose Ibarra","family":"Rodriguez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jane","family":"Edmunds","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-3428-2530","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nyembezi L.","family":"Dhliwayo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_8_1_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/GIM.0b013e3181faa0f2"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJM199909093411104"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jth.15163"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1182\/blood.V128.22.2600.2600"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/17474086.2019.1636645"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_6_2","first-page":"466","article-title":"May-Thurner Syndrome and Hypercoagulable States: A Recipe for Extensive Venous Thrombosis","volume":"20","author":"Buxbaum J.
