Özet
Although factor V Leiden mutation, is the most common established genetic risk factor for venous thrombosis, its effect on the development of myocardial infarction remains unclear. We describe a family case of homozygous factor V Leiden mutation in two siblings presenting with acute myocardial infarction as a rare cause of myocardial infarction in the young.
