AB The  antiphospholipid  syndrome  is  an  acquired  thrombotic  disorder  associated  with  circulating  autoantibodies  to  anionic  phospholipid–protein  complexes.These  antibodies  were  first  detected  as  inhibitors  of  the  activated  partial  thromboplastin  time  (aPTT)  in  patients  with  systemic  lupus  erythematosus  (SLE)  and,  for  this  reason,  were  called  “lupus  anticoagulant,”  although  this  finding  is  not  limited  to  patients  with  lupus,  nor  is  the  clinical  syndrome  that  of  bleeding.
