Aortic valve surgery for aortic regurgitation caused by Libman-Sacks endocarditis in a patient with primary antiphospholipid syndrome: a case report

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2021
Background Antiphospholipid syndrome is an antibody mediated pro-thrombotic state leading to various arterial and venous thromboses. The syndrome can be either primary or secondary to other autoimmune diseases, commonly systemic lupus erythematosus ...

Recurrent Cerebral Artery Dissection Associated with Seronegative Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome

Tomography, 2022
Stroke in young patients requires thorough evaluation as they often lack risk factors. Antiphospholipid syndrome can cause arterial thrombosis and pregnancy loss; hence, differential diagnoses should include seronegative antiphospholipid syndrome.

Antiphospholipid antibody profile based obstetric outcomes of primary antiphospholipid syndrome: the PREGNANTS study [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: Antiphospholipid syndrome is an autoimmune, hypercoagulable state that is caused by antiphospholipid antibodies. Anticardiolipin antibodies, anti-β2 glycoprotein-I, and lupus anticoagulant are the main autoantibodies found in ...

Antiphospholipid Syndrome

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1993
The antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL), namely, the lupus anticoagulant and the anticardiolipin antibodies, are a family of autoantibodies directed predominantly against negatively charged phospholipids. Many studies have confirmed that patients with these antibodies are prone to repeated episodes of thrombosis, fetal losses, and thrombocytopenia.

The Antiphospholipid Syndrome [PDF]

Seminars in Nephrology, 2007
The antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by the clinical association of antiphospholipid autoantibodies (aPL) with a syndrome of hypercoagulability that can affect any blood vessel, irrespective of type or size. Involvement of larger vessels, such as arteries or veins, manifests in the form of thrombosis or embolism ...

Catastrophic Antiphospholipid Syndrome as a Complication of COVID-19 Infection

Journal of Investigative Medicine High Impact Case Reports, 2023
COVID-19 infection has been found to precipitate hypercoagulability and transiently increase antiphospholipid antibodies. However, it is yet to be determined how likely these transient changes contribute to thrombotic events and antiphospholipid syndrome.
