Abstract:
Antiphospholipid syndrome is an autoimmunological disease, characterized by coexistence of antiphospholipid antibodies in serum and vascular thrombosis or characteristic obstetrical complications. In spite of numerous clinical trials concerning antiphospholipid syndrome in pregnancy, performed in Poland as well as abroad, there are still some unclear aspects connected with this disease. In the paper, authors pay particular attention to patomechanism and contemporary diagnostic trends of antiphospholipid syndrome in pregnancy.
