Antiphospholipid antibodies--our experience

Antiphospholipid antibodies (APA) have aroused multispeciality interests. In our study of 200 cases worked up for APA, we have used a few simple coagulation tests to detect lupus anticoagulant (LA) and ELISA to detect anticardiolipin antibodies.

description Antiphospholipid antibodies (APA) have aroused multispeciality interests. In our study of 200 cases worked up for APA, we have used a few simple coagulation tests to detect lupus anticoagulant (LA) and ELISA to detect anticardiolipin antibodies. The positivity rate for LA among cases with recurrent pregnancy loss was 4.16% and for aCL 20.8%. The positivity rate for LA in patients with venous thrombosis was 6.2%, in arterial thrombosis was 7.14% and in SLE patients was 58.3%. In conclusion APAs are to be looked for in cases of recurrent pregnancy loss, thrombosis in people < 45 years of age without risk factors and SLE patients to assess the thrombotic risk and to decide on anti coagulant therapy for further management.
