Background: Prothrombin (FII) G20210A mutation and elevated plasma prothrombin activity are known risk factors for venous thrombosis. The risk of venous thrombosis among 19911G carriers of the prothrombin A19911G polymorphism has not been extensively investigated. Objectives and methods: We assessed...
