A member asked:
What type of hematological malignancy itself would cause elevation in antiphospholipid antibody ( apl ) ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
None: APL is more related to autoimmune disorders which may involve various target organs in the body but not to malignancy. Not all patients with this antibody become ill. You need to consult a rheumatologist if you are having symptoms.
