Factor V Leiden and hemophilia
Several inherited prothrombotic risk factors have been identified so far. Among them, the factor V (FV) Leiden mutation causes a reduced ability of activated protein C to inactivate activated FV and is the most frequent genetic predisposing factor for venous thromboembolism.

Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2013
SummaryFactor V Leiden is a procoagulant mutation associated with venous and arterial thrombosis and pregnancy complications. Its high prevalence of 5% in Caucasians suggests that there are evolutionary benefits as well. Carriers are indeed reported to have various advantageous phenotypes related to haemostasis, inflammation and fertility: less acute ...

Factor V Leiden and Contraception
Journal of Midwifery & Women's Health, 2004Factor V Leiden is the most common genetic cause of primary and recurrent venous thromboembolism in women. It is an inherited thrombophilia that results from a genetic mutation. A college‐aged woman who presented for care and had a positive family history of venous thrombosis tested positive for Factor V Leiden.

Homozygous factor V Leiden and double heterozygosity for factor V Leiden and prothrombin mutation
Journal of Thrombosis and Thrombolysis, 2012The most common forms of familial thrombophilia are factor V Leiden (FVL) and prothrombin mutation (PTM). Homozygous FVL and PTM have long been feared conditions thought to cause high rates of morbidity and mortality. To analyse clinical features in patients with homozygous FVL and PTM, as well as patients with double heterozygosity for FVL and PTM ...

Factor V Leiden: A Clinical Review
The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 2001Factor V Leiden is the most prevalent genetic thrombophilia in people of European descent. Since its discovery, much clinical information has been gathered regarding the distribution and prevalence of the genetic mutation, the mechanism of thrombophilia, and its association with clinical thromboembolic events.

Venous thromboembolism accounts for approximately 600,000 hospitalizations and 50,000 deaths per year in the United States. Many inherited blood disorders predispose patients to this disorder. The most common of these disorders is factor V Leiden. Factor V Leiden thrombophilia is an inherited disorder, mutation, of the mechanisms of blood clotting. The

HELLP syndrome and factor V Leiden
European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology, 2001The association of thrombophilia and obstetrical complications is documented and well consistent with the hypothesis of an insufficient placental perfusion due to fibrin deposition as a major underlying pathophysiological mechanism. Factor V Leiden is one of the most frequent thrombophilic mutations. A high prevalence of this mutation has recently been

World distribution of factor V Leiden
The Lancet, 1995We have analysed 3380 chromosomes (1690 unrelated individuals) from twenty-four populations for the presence of factor V Leiden, an important risk factor in venous thromboembolism. The allele frequency in 618 Europeans was 4.4%, with the highest prevalence among Greeks (7%). It was 0.6% in Asia Minor.
