Single Center Review of Clinicopathological Characterization in 77 Patients with Positive Lupus Anticoagulant Antibodies

Abstract

We find that thrombosis, venous or arterial, and obstetric complications are the most frequent clinical findings in our patients with circulating LAC. Incidental APS is not an uncommon finding in patients screened for APS. There is a clear association between the presence of LAC and an abnormal aPTT, which is much less obvious with the PT.
