93788-8
LaboratoryF5 gene HR2 haplotype [Genotype] in Blood by Molecular genetics method Nominal
Definition
Factor V HR2 Allele, DNA Mutation Analysis is useful in patients who are carriers of Factor V Mutation (Leiden)as coinheritance of Factor V Mutation (Leiden) is associated with a 3-4-fold increased risk of venous thrombosis compared to inheritance of Factor V Mutation (Leiden) alone. As a result the result of the HR2 haplotype analysis is interpreted in the context of knowledge of the Leiden mutation.
