Abstract
|
|
|
|
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is one of the many causes of hypercoagulability which often presents with vascular thrombosis in the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies. Symptoms vary depending on the location of the thrombosis. Gastrointestinal symptoms such as paralytic ileus is one of the rare symptoms in APS. The main therapy for APS is use of anticoagulants, but this becomes difficult when there is ongoing bleeding. We report a successful but challenging treatment of a 42-year-old patient who presented with paralytic ileus due to APS with cofounded on-going renal bleeding caused by renal angiomyolipoma.
