Factor V Leiden (FVL) and prothrombin G 20210A (FT G20210A) are the most common genetic defects leading to venous thrombosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of FVL and PT G20210A mutations in adult patient with DVT in our region. Between September 2001 and August 2006, 52 patients with documented venous thrombosis were investigated in our center for the presence of FVL and PT G20210A mutations. Fourteen of 52 patients with thrombosis (%26.9) were detected to have a FVL mutation. The PT G20210A mutation was detected in 6 (%11) of the 52 patients. Our findings reveal that FVL and PT G20210A mutations are significantly higher in patients with DVT than in the healty population in the southeast of Turkey.trinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessDeep Vein ThrombosisFactor V LeidenProthrombin G20210aArticle17265692-s2.0-34447559762N/A
