Inherited thrombophilias are a group of clinical conditions in which there is a genetic variant defect associated with a predisposition to thrombosis. Genetic testing for inherited thrombophilias has been used in the diagnosis of specific thrombophila at our centre for the last 20 years, this work will summarize our experience.
