Portal venous system thrombosis (PVST), a common complication of liver cirrhosis, is closely associated with thrombophilia. To explore the association of homocysteine (Hcy), anticardiolipin antibody (aCL), and anti-β2 glycoprotein I antibody (aβ2GPI), which are possible thrombophilic factors, with PVST in liver cirrhosis. Overall, 654 non-malignant patients (219 with and 435 without liver cirrhosis) admitted between January 2016 and June 2020 were retrospectively evaluated. Presence of PVST, degree of main portal vein (MPV) thrombosis, and clinically significant PVST were identified. Hcy level, hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy), aCL positivity, and aβ2GPI positivity were compared according to the presence of liver cirrhosis and PVST. Positive aβ2GPI was significantly more frequent in patients with liver cirrhosis than those without, but Hcy level and proportions of HHcy and positive aCL were not significantly different between them. PVST could be evaluated in 136 cirrhotic patients. Hcy level [10.57 μmol/L (2.71-56.82) versus 9.97 μmol/L (2.05-53.44); P = 0.796] and proportions of HHcy [4/44 (9.1%) versus 13/81 (16.0%); P = 0.413] and positive aCL [1/23 (4.3%) versus 10/52 (19.2%); P = 0.185] and aβ2GPI [9/23 (39.1%) versus 21/52 (40.4%); P = 0.919] were not significantly different between cirrhotic patients with and without PVST. There was still no significant association of Hcy level, HHcy, aCL, or aβ2GPI with PVST based on Child-Pugh classification, MPV thrombosis >50%, and clinically significant PVST. Hcy, aCL, and aβ2GPI may not be associated with PVST in liver cirrhosis, suggesting that routine screening for Hcy, aCL, and aβ2GPI should be unnecessary in such patients.
