Resumen

El síndrome antifosfolipídico (SAF) es una reconocida causa de complicaciones en el embarazo, como la trombosis materna, la preeclampsia y la mortalidad embriofetal. El tratamiento de las mujeres embarazadas con SAF exige un abordaje multidisciplinario médico-obstétrico, así como intervención terapéutica basada en la combinación de ácido acetilsalicílico y heparina. Si bien las pautas concretas son discutibles por las importantes limitaciones de los estudios existentes, hay cierto grado de consenso en la recomendación del tratamiento combinado en mujeres con trombosis y/o muertes fetales previas. Las pacientes con historia exclusiva de abortos tempranos son el grupo en el que más se debate sobre la actitud a seguir, si bien el ácido acetilsalicílico en monoterapia sigue siendo una opción. En cualquiera de las situaciones, es fundamental una correcta tromboprofilaxis periparto en todas las mujeres con anticuerpos antifosfolipídicos.

Abstract

The antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is a well known cause of pregnancy complications, including maternal thrombosis and preeclampsia as well as embryofetal losses. A multidisciplinary, medical-obstetric approach is of great importance in the clinical management of pregnant women with APS. Therapeutic interventions are based on the combination acilsalycilic acid-heparin. Although the specific combinations in different situations are still a matter of debate – due to important limitations of the available studies–, combined treatment with both drugs is usually recommended in women with previous thrombosis and/or fetal death. Aspirin alone is still a reasonable option for women with early losses, although controversy is particularly important in this group. In any situation, an adequate thromboprophylaxis in the peripartum period is warranted.
