Zusammenfassung:Objective The first aim was to retrospectively identify risk factors for the development of early severe preeclampsia (sPE) in patients with obstetric antiphospholipid syndrome (OAPS) who received conventional treatment (CT). The second aim was to evaluate the impact of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) in preventing early sPE among a subgroup of patients considered at high risk. Methods A total of 102 women diagnosed with OAPS and treated with CT since the diagnosis of pregnancy were selected. At the end of pregnancy, we identified risk factors associated with early sPE. According to these risk factors, we collected a new cohort of 42 patients who presented high-risk factors for developing early sPE and split them into two groups according to the treatment received: group A, CT (30 patients); and group B, CT+HCQ (12 patients). We evaluated and compared pregnancy outcomes in both groups. Results According to the multivariate analysis, risk factors associated with early sPE and CT were triple positivity for antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) (OR = 24.70, [4.27–142.92], p
