It is a rare disease of unclear etiology in children, although alterations in coagulation or the collagen gene have been described and could be associated with its etiology. Our objective was to evaluate the following alterations: COL1A1 (rs1107946, rs2412298), COL2A1 (rs121912891 and rs387106558), MTHFR rs1801133, CBS rs115742905, and PT rs1799963 and their relationship with LCPD.\n<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>DNA was obtained and genotyped by real-time PCR with TaqMan probes. Prothrombin (FII) and homocysteine (Hcy) were determined by a coagulometric method. The variables were described as mean and standard deviation or percentages, and genotypic and allelic distributions were analyzed using the Student's t-test. The Hardy\u2013Weinberg equilibrium and OR were also used.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>We studied 23 patients with LCPD and 46 controls. We did not find any association of the MTHFR, CBS, PT, COL1A1, and COL2A1 genetic variants with LCPD. However, when adjusting the data with the Hcy values for the MTHFR C677T polymorphism, the C\/C genotypes showed an association with the recessive model (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.038), with susceptibility to LCPD.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>No association was found with the CBS, PT, COL1A1, and COL2A1 genes.
