Síndrome Antifosfolípido

El síndrome antifosfolípido (SAF) es un trastorno autoinmune adquirido caracterizado por la presencia persistente de anticuerpos antifosfolípidos, que crean un estado de hipercoagulabilidad.

Estados hipercoagulables: los LOS Neisseria estados hipercoagulables o trombofilias se definen por un mayor riesgo de formación de coágulos o trombosis. La causa puede ser hereditaria o adquirida; ambas conducen a la producción de coágulos que pueden provocar la oclusión de los LOS Neisseria vasos de los LOS Neisseria órganos principales, lo cual puede ser mortal. El factor V Leiden Factor V Leiden Hypercoagulable States es la causa hereditaria más común. El tratamiento suele incluir el uso de anticoagulantes.

Tabla: Causas de un estado hipercoagulable
Tipo Enfermedad Descripción
Primaria o hereditaria Factor V Leiden Factor V Leiden Hypercoagulable States
  • Autosómica dominante con penetrancia incompleta
  • Trombofilia hereditaria más común en EN Erythema nodosum is an immune-mediated panniculitis (inflammation of the subcutaneous fat) caused by a type IV (delayed-type) hypersensitivity reaction. It commonly manifests in young women as tender, erythematous nodules on the shins. Erythema Nodosum los LOS Neisseria caucásicos
  • Causada por una mutación puntual que sustituye la guanina por la adenina
  • Resulta en EN Erythema nodosum is an immune-mediated panniculitis (inflammation of the subcutaneous fat) caused by a type IV (delayed-type) hypersensitivity reaction. It commonly manifests in young women as tender, erythematous nodules on the shins. Erythema Nodosum la resistencia a la degradación del factor V Factor V Heat- and storage-labile plasma glycoprotein which accelerates the conversion of prothrombin to thrombin in blood coagulation. Factor V accomplishes this by forming a complex with factor Xa, phospholipid, and calcium (prothrombinase complex). Hemostasis por la proteína C
Mutaciones de la protrombina 20210A o del factor II
  • Autosómico dominante
  • Segunda trombofilia hereditaria más frecuente
  • Una mutación puntual conduce a una función de protrombina ↑.
Deficiencia de antitrombina
  • Autosómica dominante (o puede ser adquirida)
  • La antitrombina inhibe normalmente la trombina y el factor Xa.
  • La deficiencia de antitrombina conduce a:
    • ↑ Trombina y factor Xa
    • Resistencia a la HBPM
Deficiencia de proteína C o S
  • Las proteínas C y S son anticoagulantes dependientes de la vitamina K.
  • Las deficiencias dan lugar a una hiperactividad de los LOS Neisseria factores V y VIII.
Secundaria o adquirida Estasis venosa
  • Inmovilidad (con vendaje de yeso, pacientes con accidente cerebrovascular, después de una operación de rodilla, vuelos largos)
  • Venas varicosas (várices)
  • Hiperviscosidad (e.g., policitemia vera)
Lesión endotelial
  • Malignidad
  • Vasculitis Vasculitis Inflammation of any one of the blood vessels, including the arteries; veins; and rest of the vasculature system in the body. Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
  • Instrumentación
Hipercoagulabilidad adquirida
  • Píldoras anticonceptivas orales
  • Síndrome antifosfolípido
  • Síndrome nefrótico
  • Hemoglobinuria Hemoglobinuria The presence of free hemoglobin in the urine, indicating hemolysis of erythrocytes within the vascular system. After saturating the hemoglobin-binding proteins (haptoglobins), free hemoglobin begins to appear in the urine. Transfusion Reactions paroxística nocturna
  • Enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal

Presentaciones comunes de la trombosis recurrente

  • Trombosis venosa profunda (TVP): trombosis de los LOS Neisseria sistemas venosos profundos que se encuentran en EN Erythema nodosum is an immune-mediated panniculitis (inflammation of the subcutaneous fat) caused by a type IV (delayed-type) hypersensitivity reaction. It commonly manifests in young women as tender, erythematous nodules on the shins. Erythema Nodosum la extremidad inferior. Esta afección es una manifestación clínica de los LOS Neisseria estados hipercoagulables y requiere tratamiento agudo para prevenir el desarrollo de embolias pulmonares. El diagnóstico suele realizarse mediante ultrasonido doppler Doppler Ultrasonography applying the doppler effect, with frequency-shifted ultrasound reflections produced by moving targets (usually red blood cells) in the bloodstream along the ultrasound axis in direct proportion to the velocity of movement of the targets, to determine both direction and velocity of blood flow. Ultrasound (Sonography). La enfermedad se trata con anticoagulantes.
  • Embolismo pulmonar ( EP EP Ectopic pregnancy refers to the implantation of a fertilized egg (embryo) outside the uterine cavity. The main cause is disruption of the normal anatomy of the fallopian tube. Ectopic Pregnancy): emergencia médica en EN Erythema nodosum is an immune-mediated panniculitis (inflammation of the subcutaneous fat) caused by a type IV (delayed-type) hypersensitivity reaction. It commonly manifests in young women as tender, erythematous nodules on the shins. Erythema Nodosum la que un émbolo obstruye el tronco/arteria pulmonar, lo que provoca una dificultad respiratoria aguda y un deterioro de la ventilación/perfusión. Alrededor del 30% de estos pacientes tienen una TVP concurrente. El diagnóstico puede realizarse mediante una angiografía pulmonar por TC ( CTPA CTPA Pulmonary Function Tests, por sus siglas en EN Erythema nodosum is an immune-mediated panniculitis (inflammation of the subcutaneous fat) caused by a type IV (delayed-type) hypersensitivity reaction. It commonly manifests in young women as tender, erythematous nodules on the shins. Erythema Nodosum inglés) y/o ventilación/perfusión (V/Q). Los LOS Neisseria pacientes son tratados con anticoagulantes.
