Presumed antiphospholipid syndrome and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura: An infrequent association

Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune disease that demonstrates antiphospholipid antibodies that cause hypercoagulability and leads to venous and arterial thrombosis. Autoantibodies to a disintegrin‐like and metalloprotease with thrombospondin type I motif, member 13 (ADAMTS 13) play a ro...

Sumario:Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune disease that demonstrates antiphospholipid antibodies that cause hypercoagulability and leads to venous and arterial thrombosis. Autoantibodies to a disintegrin‐like and metalloprotease with thrombospondin type I motif, member 13 (ADAMTS 13) play a role in the microthrombosis of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura in APS patients.
