On the basis of empirical observations and emerging laboratoristic findings, we will elaborate the hypothesis that several cases of thrombotic events during cOVId-19 infection represent the clinical epiphenomenon of a viral-induced secondary anti-phospholipid antibody syndrome (APS) that, in the most severe cases, may develop as catastrophic anti-phospholipid antibody syndrome (cAPS). clinical evidence and emerging data from pathological examinations indicate that a thrombotic diathesis, potentially leading to venous thromboembolism (VTE), and to dIc in some of the most severe cases, may occur in a substantial proportion of patients with cOVId-19 infection, also in a manner independent of long-term bed rest and eventual hormonal treatment. ./cache/cord-336543-ydrmlujj.txt ./txt/cord-336543-ydrmlujj.txt
