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
