Is there a treatment for a blood clot in your liver if you carry the factor five blood disorder ?

Yes: Factor 5 leaves you at increased risk for clots. A clot in the liver would normally be treated with a temporary course of blood thinners. If you are prone to clots, like having factor 5 leiden, you may need life long blood thinners.

Coumadin (warfarin): Likely long term- life long anticoagulation will be a consideration.
