We examined a case involving a 56-year-old male who suffered from severe vitamin B12 deficiency. This deficiency led to dangerously high homocysteine levels, which are associated with blood clot formation. Despite effective treatment with B12, this case illustrates that vitamin deficiency can lead to significant health issues, including thrombosis and embolism.
The patient’s condition improved with B12 injections, but the interplay between low vitamin levels and clotting risks was evident. It’s clear that while vitamin B12 treatment can help, avoiding complications like blood clots remains crucial.

We explored the relationship between nitrous oxide abuse and cerebral venous thrombosis in a 19-year-old female patient. After using nitrous oxide, her vitamin B12 levels dropped significantly, leading to increased homocysteine, a marker associated with clotting issues.
Following vitamin B12 supplementation, her levels normalized, indicating a potential connection between deficiency and clot development. This case suggests that hyperhomocysteinemia, triggered by low B12, may induce cerebral venous thrombosis, emphasizing the need for awareness of vitamin deficiencies related to nitrous oxide use.

We explored a compelling case of pernicious anemia that led to a rare presentation of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). The patient, a 63-year-old woman, faced severe anemia and a significant vitamin B12 deficiency.
After diagnosis, she received daily vitamin B12 injections which significantly improved her blood counts and overall health.
This case highlights the importance of early detection and treatment of vitamin B12 deficiency in preventing serious complications like DIC.

Deficiency resolved
This seems to work great for me. I had a B12 deficiency, which is common for vegetarians. This product has proven effective; my latest blood test shows I am no longer deficient. The pleasant taste is a bonus.

This case report examined a 14-year-old girl who experienced cerebral venous thrombosis alongside high homocysteine levels due to a unique genetic mutation at the MTHFR locus.
After beginning treatment with anticoagulants and supplements, including vitamins B12, folate, and B6, we observed significant improvements. Within a month, her headaches vanished, her intracranial pressure dropped, and there was notable shrinkage of the blood clot.
Overall, this implies that proper treatment, including B12, may positively influence recovery in similar cases.

We explored a unique case involving a 49-year-old woman who experienced postprandial hypoglycemia following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery. While hypoglycemia is uncommon, her medical history of mesenteric thrombosis and prior anticoagulation treatment contributed to her condition.
We observed that intravenous iron and intramuscular vitamin B12 supplementation effectively addressed her anemia, leading to improved hemoglobin levels. This improvement allowed her to safely resume oral anticoagulation to lower her risk of further thrombotic events.

We explored how elevated homocysteine levels, termed hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy), impact patients with acute brain injuries in neurocritical care. Our systematic review of 33 studies revealed that HHcy is an independent risk factor for various brain injuries and a marker of poor prognosis.
Importantly, we noticed that B vitamins, particularly B12, along with folic acid and B6, play a potential role in mitigating the risk of thrombosis and other complications in these patients. However, the direct effectiveness of B12 treatment on blood clotting in the context of HHcy remains an area for further investigation.

We examined a fascinating case involving a 25-year-old male who experienced severe headaches and vertigo due to cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT). This unique situation arose after the patient had been abusing nitrous oxide, leading to a vitamin B12 deficiency.
After arriving at the hospital, he underwent a set of examinations which raised suspicions of a cerebrovascular accident. A CT scan and subsequent MRI confirmed the presence of clotting in the brain’s venous structures. His unusually high levels of homocysteine and low vitamin B12 pointed directly to a deficiency as a contributing factor to the blood clot.
Treatment for the patient included vitamin B12 supplementation alongside anticoagulants. Remarkably, within just a week, we saw significant improvement in his symptoms. This case underscores the potential importance of vitamin B12 in managing conditions associated with blood clotting, especially in individuals with deficiencies.
While vitamin B12 treatment was part of the regimen, it’s crucial to note that it was not administered in isolation but rather alongside other medications. This complicates our ability to draw definitive conclusions about its individual effectiveness in this specific scenario.

Vitamin B12 and blood clot relationship
We explored a case involving cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) coinciding with hyperhomocysteinemia and iron-deficiency anemia, a condition attributed to autoimmune gastritis. The patient, a 47-year-old woman, presented with various symptoms including impaired movement and consciousness. Imaging tests revealed significant brain swelling and clot formations in the venous sinuses.
During the assessment, we noted that the patient suffered from anemia and elevated levels of homocysteine, both contributing factors to the development of blood clots. Interestingly, she also tested positive for intrinsic factor antibodies, leading to the diagnosis of autoimmune gastritis, which further compounded her condition.
Treatment for the patient included anticoagulants, as well as the replacement of iron and vitamin B12. Although the treatment approach effectively alleviated her symptoms and allowed for recovery without neurological deficits, it was difficult to isolate the specific impact of vitamin B12 on blood clot resolution since it was administered alongside other therapies.
Ultimately, while the combination of treatments was beneficial, the study does not provide clear evidence that vitamin B12 alone significantly contributes to the prevention or treatment of blood clots.
