A member asked:
Antiphospholipid syndrome patients only between the ages of 18 - 30?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Common young/mid-age: Aps is commonly seen in the young and middle age group but can be seen in the pediatric and elderly population also. Since aps may be a part of sle (lupus), a sizable number of aps patients are young in common with the sle population. There is a female preponderance also.
