Anti phospholipid syndrome (APS) has been well defined in adults; however, primary nontraumatic arterial thrombosis owing to this entity is unusual in the pediatric population. The authors report a case of APS with lower extremity arterial thrombosis who had discolored feet since delivery. (C) 2004 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
