[Endomyocardial fibrosis associated to Antiphospholipid syndrome. Case report and review].

A 29-year-old man with a history of seizures, was admitted due to an episode of unconsciousness recovered and hypertension with renal disfunction. The electrocardiogram mimicked a hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, but, by Doppler echocardiography, this was discarded because it suggested endomyocardial fibrosis which was confirmed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging with late enhancement. Since the episode of unconsciousness, brain imaging studies were performed showing vascular sequelae and microangiopathic lesions. These vascular lesions asocciated with renal disfunction with proteinuria within nephrotic range, intensified the search for the etiology arriving to the diagnosis of antiphospholipid syndrome. The patient was discharged with antihypertensive therapy, acenocoumarol, antiepileptic and immunosuppressive drugs.
