Some single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) (G1691A in factor V gene, also called factor V Leiden [FVL], G20210A in prothrombin gene and C677T in methyltetrahydrofolate reductase [MTHFR] gene) have been associated with thrombosis and ocular involvement in BD with controversial results.
It is not well established whether there is an association among common inherited gene defects, Factor V (FV) Leiden, the prothrombin (PT) G20210A mutation, C677T methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) and ocular Behçet's disease (BD).
