Abstract

The presence of antiphospholipid antibodies is a significant risk factor for stroke in young adults. A forty-year-old man who presented with left-sided weakness was examined with an initial diagnosis of transient ischemic attack. Laboratory investigations showed increased anticardiolipin antibody levels. The findings of digital substraction angiography was consistent with vasculitis. A follow-up scheme was designed with antiaggregant therapy. The role of antiphospholipid antibodies is emphasized in early onset strokes.

Özet

Antifosfolipid antikor varlığı genç erişkinlerde görülen inmeler için önemli bir risk faktörüdür. Sol tarafında kısa süreli güç kaybı nedeniyle başvuran 40 yaşında erkek hasta geçici iskemik atak öntanısıyla incelendi. Hastanın laboratuvar incelemesinde antikardiolipin antikor düzeyi yüksekti; dijital substraksiyon anjiyografi bulguları vaskülitle uyumlu bulundD. Antiagregan tedaviye başlanarak hasta takibe alındı. Bu olgu sunumunda erken yaştaki inmelerde antifosfolipid antikoru varlığının önemi vurgulandı.
