ABSTRACT
Hepatitis C was known to be associated with many autoimmune disease, but the pathophysiology was not well understood. Antiphospholipid antibodies, which are autoantibodies detected to negatively charged phospholipids, are sometimes detected in infectious diseases, including sypilis and autoimmun diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus and unknown etiology. A few reports suggested that there is a relation between primary antiphospholipid syndrome and hepatitis C. We recently experienced a case of primary antiphospholipid syndrome with chronic hepatitis C in 20 years old womam who developed cerebral infartion. A brief review of related literature is presented.
