[Painless infarction in antiphospholipid syndrome].
The authors report a rare case of myocardial infarction secondary to coronary thromboses caused by the antiphospholipid syndrome. The relations between the cardiac pathology, especially the coronary disease, and antiphospholipid antibodies are recalled. The importance and methods of monitoring the anticoagulant therapy are emphasised.
