Factor V Leiden, MTHFR C677T and Prothrombin Gene Mutation G20210A in Iranian Patients with Venous Thrombosis
Background: Factor V Leiden, Prothrombin gene (G20210A) and MTHFR (C677T) polymorphism are the main biomarkers for evaluation of tendency for venous thromboembolism. We aimed to investigate the frequency of mutations in factor V Leiden, Prothrombin G20210A and MTHFR C677T and identify the genetic status for these mutations in patients with venous thrombosis. Methods: This study was carried out...
متن کاملFactor V Leiden and prothrombin gene G20210A mutation in children with venous thromboembolism.
To determine whether factor V Leiden (FVL) and/or prothrombin gene G20210A mutation (PT20210A) are risk factors for venous thromboembolism (VTE) in Argentinean children. One hundred and thirty consecutive children with VTE were prospectively assisted at a single centre. Blood samples were available from 110 of them for detailed haematological analysis. The prevalence of both mutations was compa...
متن کاملFrequency of factor V Leiden (G1691A) and prothrombin (G20210A) polymorphisms in Population of Kerman Province, Iran
Background & Aims:Thromboembolism is an acute cardiovascular disease that ranges from clinically unimportant to massive embolism. Both acquired and hereditary risk factors contribute to the disease. We aimed to determine the prevalence of two hereditary predisposing factor of the disease, prothrombin G20210A and factor V Leiden (G1691A) polymorphisms, in Kerman population.<br /...
متن کاملPregnancy-associated venous thromboembolism in combined heterozygous factor V Leiden and prothrombin G20210A mutations.
CONTEXT Pregnancy and puerperium raise the risk of thromboembolic events, and these risks are increased in women who are carriers of thrombophilia factors. Prothrombin (FII) G20210A and factor V Leiden heterozygous mutations are associated with moderate risk of thrombosis. The association of these thrombophilic conditions is very rare in pregnancy, and the real risk of thrombosis is unknown. ...
متن کاملFactor V Leiden and prothrombin gene G20210A mutations are uncommon in portal vein thrombosis in India.
BACKGROUND Extra-hepatic portal vein obstruction due to portal vein thrombosis (PVT) is an important cause of portal hypertension in several regions including India. The cause of thrombosis in these patients remains unclear. We studied the frequency of mutations in genes for coagulation factors V and II (prothrombin) in 61 Indian patients with PVT and 49 healthy control subjects. METHODS The ...
