We describe a case of a 28-year-old man who developed an extensive spontaneous deep venous thrombosis. Testing revealed heterozygotic factor V Leiden mutation, and the presence of both lupus anticoagulant (LA) and elevated IgM anticardiolipin antibody (ACA). Several family members were found to be h

Factor V G1691A (FV-Leiden) and prothrombin (PRT) G20210A single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were associated with venous thrombosis among Caucasians. We assessed the contribution of both SNPs to the genetic susceptibility of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) among Lebanese and Tunisian patients. Subj
## Objective: To evaluate the frequency and type of vascular lesions and to study the association of factor v gene g1691a (leiden) and prothrombin gene g20210a polymorphisms with venous thrombosis in italian patients with behΓ§et's disease (bd). ## Methods: Included were 118 consecutive italian bd
