A NEW VIEW ON THE PATHOLOGY OF ANTIPHOSPHOLIPID SYNDROME COMBINED WITH PRE-ECLAMPSIA OF PREGNANCY

Abstract

Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is a multisystem disease characterized by the production in the human body of large amounts of antibodies to phospholipids, the chemical structures that make up parts of the cell. APS is one of the most urgent multidisciplinary problems of modern medicine and is considered as a unique model of autoimmune thrombotic vasculopathy. APS is the cause of recurrent miscarriage in 27-42%. More often detected in women (5:1). In recent years, in the scientific field, we are increasingly faced with the problem of combining APS with other pathologies, for example, with hypertensive conditions during pregnancy. In this article, we have provided our opinion on APS associated hypertension during pregnancy.
