[The anticardiolipin syndrome after breast reconstruction].
In a 38-year-old patient 17 years previously silicone prostheses of both breasts were implanted. Three years after operation spontaneous abortions developed, later repeated venous and arterial thromboses. Laboratory examinations revealed antibodies against cardiolipin and the diagnosis of anticardiolipin syndrome was established. The authors discuss the relationship between the performed operation and the present disease.
