[Antiphospholipid antibodies and cerebral infarction].
The antiphospholipid antibodies syndrome is clinically characterized by the presence of thrombosis, repetitive abortions and/or thrombopenia. During the past years, thanks to the development of techniques for its detection, its relationship with cerebrovascular accidents has become of special interest. Two patients with antiphospholipid antibodies and multiple cerebral infarcts are presented and the clinical and pathogenic aspects of this association are reviewed.
