Abdominal pain in the patient with antiphospholipid antibody syndrome: A case report

Abstract

Abstract Antiphospholipid antibody syndrome (APS) is known to cause hypercoagulability, affecting a wide range of vessels, systematically. A 56‐year‐old woman was referred to our center with severe epigastric pain, with the history of APS. She was treated with packed cells, fresh frozen plasma and anticoagulation therapies.
