December 05, 2004 Antiphospholipid Syndrome: What Is It? Antiphospholipid syndrome is an autoimmune disorder in which the body makes antibodies to its own phospholipids or plasma proteins. Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) can occur in individuals without any associated disease. This is called primary APS. The disorder may also occur with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) or another rheumatic or autoimmune disorder. This is called secondary APS. Antiphospholipid antibodies can be found in as many as 50% of people with lupus and in 1-5% of the rest of the population.

Early signs of this disease are often diagnosed as many different disorders before being correctly diagnosed. This inability to correctly diagnose is not due to any form of medical inefficiency, but is due to the disease only being recognised in the last 9 years, and it's ability to mimic the symptoms of a number of well known and documented diseases. Even though I have a clinical diagnosis of APLS, wear an SOS Talisman bracelet and carry a medical fact card on me, in an emergency the Accident and Emergency doctors still insist on treating the possibly catastrophic events as a Migraine. I hope this site will help to raise the awareness of many doctors and health care professionals, and give help and the comfort of understanding the problems to patients and their families.

Dlott, MD Douglas A. Triplett, MD Editor's note: This is the second in a series of articles focusing on laboratory evaluation of coagulation disorders. Each article contains a clinical history, laboratory results, an algorithm for evaluating either an abnormal coagulation screening test or a clinical abnormality (bleeding or thrombosis), and a final diagnosis. A major goal of this series is to provide an overview of how specific coagulation abnormalities can be evaluated in the clinical laboratory. Clinical history . The patient is a 39-year-old Caucasian male who at age 30 had a left anterior myocardial infarction. Shortly thereafter the patient experienced his first of several strokes. Residual deficits include memory loss and expressive aphasia. Multiple neurologic and cardiac imaging studies have failed to demonstrate an etiology. Laboratory findings have repeatedly demonstrated a prolonged activated partial throm-boplastin time and borderline thrombocytopenia. The initial laboratory findings are shown in Table 1 The differential diagnosis was based on lupus anticoagulant plus or minus other an-ti-phospholipid anti-bodies versus specific factor inhibitors or factor deficiency.
