The SAF diagnosis was reached with the laboratory result and the repetitive abortions background, after this, follow-up was carried out during pregnancy, cesarean and puerperium. This multisystemic autoimmune entity of unknown etiology is characterized by repetition thrombosis, spontaneous abortions and fetal losses, associated to the presence of antiphospholipidic antibodies. As a review material, retrospective studies publications in Ecuador’s hospitals have been used, where repetition abortions, intrauterine growth restriction, preclampsy, eclampsy and preterm parturitions were associated to this disease.
