Popis: Objective The aim was to investigate the clinical characteristics and molecular pathogenic mechanism of twins with congenital factor V (FV) deficiency. Methods We comprehensively analyzed the clinical manifestations and laboratory test results of a set of twins and their parents and performed point mutation analysis with direct high-throughput exon sequencing. Results The prothrombin time and activated partial thromboplastin time were prolonged for both probands, and the FV activity levels were 13.0% and 9.8%. Next-generation sequencing showed that the affected individuals harbored a paternal c.5113A>C (p.S1705R) and a maternal c.4949C>T (p.A1650V) heterozygous variants in the FV gene, which conformed to an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern. This is the first report of these point mutations. The older boy also had a congenital patent foramen ovale. Conclusion In this set of twins, missense mutations of the FV gene were related to congenital FV deficiency but unrelated to the patent foramen ovale observed in the older boy.
