Abstract
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), is an autoimmune systemic disorder known to manifest with thrombosis in almost all vessels throughout the body, can also be accompanied by pregnancy morbidity, and is persistent with the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies, including lupus anticoagulant antibodies, or relatively high titers of anticardiolipin, or anti-β2Glycoprotein I antibodies. APS can occur alone or in association with other diseases, more commonly systemic lupus erythematous. In patients with both underlying diseases episodes of arthritis, skin changes in the form of livedo reticularis, thrombocytopenia and leucopenia were more common. Cardiac manifestations have also been reported. Here we present a complicated case of a young female patient with antiphospholipid syndrome and an underlying systemic lupus erythematosus.
