Abstract

The antiphospholipid syndrome is defined as a clinical disorder with recurrent arterial and venous thrombotic events, pregnancy wastage and/or thrombocytopenia in the presence of the lupus anticoagulant and/or moderate to high positive anticardiolipin test. Both a primary form without any evident autoimune disorders, and a secondary form, usually in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus, are recognized. We wanted to emphasize that antiphospholipid syndrome must be excluded in young patients with retinal vascular occlusions. Because of our patient who had trombotic events even on the anticoagulation therapy, we will make an emphasis on this syndrome which can be resistant to therapy

Özet

Antifosfolipid sendromu (AFS), lupus antikoagülanı ve/veya orta ya da yüksek seviyelerde antikardiyolipin antikorları mevcudiyetinde, tekrarlayan arteryel ve venöz trombotik olaylar, gebelik sonlanmaları ve/veya trombositopeni varlığında tanımlanmış bir klinik bozukluktur. Bu sendromun başka bir otoimmün hastalık olmaksızın primer formu ve sıklıkla sistemik lupus eritematozus ile birlikte görülen sekonder formu mevcuttur. Yazımızda genç yaşlarda ortaya çıkan retinal vasküler oklüzyonların tamamında antifosfolipid sendromunun ekarte edilmesinin önemine işaret etmek istedik. Antikoagülan tedavi almasına rağmen tekrarlayan koagülatif ataklar ile başvuran bir hastamızdan yola çıkarak tedaviye rezistans gösterebilen bu hastalığa vurgu yapacağız.
