Abstract
URIBE, Carlos E et al. Acute myocardial infarction as first manifestation of primary antiphospholipid syndrome in a twenty-four years old patient. Rev. Col. Cardiol. [online]. 2005, vol.12, n.3, pp.135-139. ISSN 0120-5633.
Primary antiphospholipid syndrome is usually manifested with deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary thromboembolism and arterial thrombosis, including cerebrovascular accidents. We report the case of a previously healthy young patient who suffered an acute myocardial infarction as the first manifestation of a primary antiphospholipid syndrome.
Keywords : primary antiphospholipid syndrome; acute myocardial infarction; lupus anticoagulant; acute coronary syndrome.
