Abstract
A 44-year-old woman with livedo reticularis, multiple ischemic strokes, and transient ischemic attacks (Sneddon's syndrome) had anti-phospholipid antibodies—the lupus anticoagulant and anticardiolipin antibodies. This patient provides support for the hypothesis that these antibodies are involved in the pathogenesis of this rare but now potentially treatable disorder.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
