title: [Oral contraceptives and activated protein C resistance: a paradigmatic example of genotype and environment interaction in the development of deep venous thrombosis].
abstract: A young woman, carrying factor V Leiden, developed a deep venous thrombosis after the use of oral contraceptives. This suggests that it is appropriate to study the most frequent causes of primary thrombophilia in all of the women beginning a treatment with estrogens.
