Genetic sequencing was performed to identify the patients’ genetic profiles. A family pedigree analysis and a review of relevant literature were conducted to assess the pathogenic significance of the mutation.Results: Genetic analysis revealed the presence of a c.3865T>G mutation in the F5 gene in both cases. This mutation is distinct from the well-established Leiden mutation and has not been previously reported. Although the two patients’ families had no direct blood relationship, both patients resided in the same geographic region, suggesting the possibility of shared environmental or genetic factors. Advances in diagnostic technologies have also facilitated the identification of hereditary thrombophilia as an increasingly recognized cause of CVST.Conclusion: The c.3865T>G mutation in the F5 gene may represent a novel genetic contributor to CVST. Its regional clustering points to a potential genetic and geographic association. These findings provide new insights into the etiology and diagnosis of CVST and underscore the importance of investigating regional genetic predispositions further.Keywords: CVST, F5 gene c.3865T>G mutation, hereditary thrombophilia, genetic predisposition, regional association
