Labbadia G., Paoletti V., Mammarella A., Paradiso M., Basili S., Musca A.

We report a clinical case of pulmonary hypertension by micro-thrombosis in situ and presence of IgG anticardiolipin antibodies in a 36-year-old woman without other clinical findings. The case is interesting as further contribution to a better understanding of antiphospholipid syndrome.
