ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To deepen the understanding of clinical manifestations and treatment of patients with positive lupus anticoagulant (LAC).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The clinical data of 2 patients were analyzed and related literature were reviewed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Case 1, a 31-year-old female, diagnosed as lupus anticoagulant positive, secondary to undifferentiated connective tissue disease, was presented with menorrhagia and thrombocytopenia. Anti-nuclear antibody (ANA) was positive 11000 (homogeneous type) with anti-double stranded DNA positive, and dRVVT LA1/LA2 was 3.4. Coagulation function was alleviated after treatment with glucocorticoid and total glucosides of paeony. Case 2, a 59-year-old female was presented with gingival bleeding, hematuria with the level of F IIC 13%. dRVVT LA1/LA2 was 2.0. Anti-nuclear antibody (ANA) was positive 11000 (type of cytoplasmic granule), anti-double stranded DNA was positive. The patient was diagnosed as hypoprothrombinemia-lupus anticoagulant syndrome (LAHS) and acquired coagulation factor deficiency. The signs of hemorrhage were alleviated after treatment with methylprednisolone 40 mg/day and cyclophosphamide, while the level of F IIC was below normal.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Symptoms of patients with positive LAC are variable. The diagnosis relies on history of disease and laboratory test. Currently, there is no standardized treatment. Cases of LAHS should be thoroughly investigated for any known causes and related disorder.</p>
