Abstract

ZUNIGA-GARZA, Erick  and  FRANCO-LOPEZ, Francisco. Mesenteric ischemia as a presentation of primary antiphospholipid syndrome in male patient. Cir. gen [online]. 2022, vol.44, n.2, pp.93-96.  Epub Oct 13, 2023. ISSN 1405-0099.  https://doi.org/10.35366/109719.

Antiphospholipid syndrome is an autoimmune disease characterized by thromboembolic formation and / or maternal morbidity, associated with a persistent increase in antiphospholipid antibody titles, the presentation in a male patient is rare, and the onset with gastrointestinal manifestations is uncommon, for this reason, we present the clinical case of a 19-year-old male patient with no significant history who made the debut of an antiphospholipid syndrome through mesenteric ischemia.

Keywords : mesenteric ischemia; antiphospholipid antibody syndrome; acute abdomen.
