ABSTRACT
Anti-phospholipid syndrome is characterized by the occurrence of venous or arterial thrombosis in the presence of anti-phospholipid antibodies and is associated with morbidity during pregnancy. Arterial thromboses are less common than venous thromboses and most frequently manifest with features consistent with ischemia or infarction. Only a few cases of arterial thrombosis with primary anti-phospholipid syndrome have been reported in Korea. We report a 41-year-old man with anti-phospholipid syndrome who had abdominal pain due to a recurrent renal infarction, and we review the literature on anti-phospholipid syndrome.
