GARCIA GUELL, Aida et al. Seudotumor cerebral en el curso de un síndrome antifosfolipídico primario. Presentación de caso. []. , 36, 5, pp. 665-670. ISSN 1684-1824.

^les^aEl síndrome antifosfolipídico como causa de disfunción endotelial múltiple suele asociarse a muchas enfermedades autoinmunes y, en ocasiones, preceder en años a las mismas. Se presentó un caso de una paciente de 36 años de edad, con antecedentes de salud, que ingresa en el hospital por un cuadro convulsivo asociado a una hemiparesia derecha, con toma facial central e imágenes tomográficas frontaparietales izquierdas compatibles con un posible tumor cerebral metastásico. En busca de su lesión primaria, se le realizan múltiples estudios hematológicos, ultrasonográficos y radiológicos, siendo todos negativos. Durante su estadía intrahospitalaria debuta con un derrame pleural izquierdo y con trombosis venosa profunda de ambos miembros inferiores. Tras 46 días de estadía y ante su mejoría y regresión de todos los síntomas, se le realiza resonancia magnética evolutiva, y al desaparecer totalmente la lesión neurológica se concluye como un seudotumor cerebral en el curso de un síndrome antifosfolipídico primario.^len^aThe anti phospholipidic syndrome as cause of a multiple endothelial dysfunction is usually associated to many autoimmune diseases and, occasionally, precedes them many years. We present the case of a female patient, aged 36 years with healthy antecedents, who entered the hospital with convulsions associated to a right hemiparesis with central facial taking and left frontal parietal tomographic images that are compatible with a possible metastatic brain tumor. Looking for the primary lesion, several hematologic, ultrasonographic and radiologic studies were carried out, showing negative results. During her hospital staying, she had a left pleural effusion and a deep venous thrombosis in both lower limbs. After a 45-days staying in the hospital, and due to her recovery and all-symptoms regression, an evolution magnetic resonance was carried out, showing the total disappearance of the neurologic lesion; we arrived to the conclusion that it was a brain pseudo tumor in the course of a primary  anti phospholipidic syndrome.
