abstract: Diagnosis of thrombopenia due to heparin in sometimes false. We present a case with venous thrombosis in whom the suspicion of thrombopenia induced by heparin finally proved to be a quinidine induced lupus. Related to this observation we emphasise the importance of immunological investigation in patient with venous thrombosis.
