Activated protein C resistance (APC-R) because of clotting factor V Leiden mutation (FVL; Arg506Gln; G1691A) is a risk factor for the development of venous thromboembolic disorders (VTE). APC-R/FVL was reported to be very high in White patients with VTE (15% to 65%) and healthy populations (1% to 15%), and to be very low or absent in non-White patients. Studies on Arab patients and populations were very inconsistent. This study reports APC-R and FVL in Arabs living in Kuwait.
