Postmortem diagnosis of Factor V Leiden from paraffin wax embedded tissue.

J S Webb1, G R Standen, C M Collins, C P Case.   

Abstract

Activated protein C resistance resulting from Factor V Leiden is an important inherited thrombophilia disorder which is found in 3.5% of people in the UK. The genetic defect can be detected using the PCR and the diagnosis can be made postmortem from paraffin wax embedded tissue. The presence of Factor V Leiden should be sought in all cases of unexplained sudden death resulting from venous thromboembolism.
