Abstract
Factor V Leiden, an autosomal dominant gene mutation that leads to increase risk of forming thrombophilia. Amputation in patients with Factor V leiden mutation is known but none describe quad-limb amputation in this setting. We present a case of a quad-limb amputee due to sepsis with factor V Leiden mutation and how he was rehabilitated.
