Abstract

Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by the production of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) resulting in clinical complications such as blood clots and pregnancy complications. The purpose of this chapter is to provide a general review of APS for patients and those who are interested in learning more about aPL/APS. Detailed information about aPL-related pregnancy problems can be found in Chapter 20.
