Mini-gastric bypass in a patient homozygous for Factor V Leiden

Cesare Peraglie. Obes Surg. 2007 Jan.

Abstract

A 42-year-old morbidly obese female, homozygous for Factor V Leiden, underwent mini-gastric bypass without complications. The recommendations for prophylaxis in this high-risk population are unclear and most likely involve a combination of pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic measures.
