Popis: The Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is one of the current hot topics embracing rheumatology and obstetrics.The first clinical description of APS was in 1983. Venous or arterial thrombosis, abortion and cerebral manifestations along with circulating antibodies were the first described hallmarks of the syndrome.
