Neuroradiology Unit, Department of Neuroscience, University Hospital of Padua, Via Giustiniani, 2 - 35128 Padua, Italy.
Background: Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) represents a serious, life-threatening complication of primary antiphospholipid syndrome (PAPS), a thrombophilic disorder mainly characterized by vascular thrombosis and/or pregnancy morbidity. Risk factors for DAH in PAPS patients and the comorbidities that may trigger DAH were investigated here in the effort to identify possible independent predictors of DAH in PAPS patients.
Methods: Only PAPS patients fulfilling the Sydney criteria were taken into consideration.
