Abstract		Antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) have been extensively studied in adults and have been associated with arterial and venous thrombosis, recurrent fetal loss and thrombocytopenia. In contrast, very little is known about the frequency and clinical significance of aPL in pediatrics. In the review article, the diversity of clinical features associated with aPL in children is presented. The appropriate management for the complications of aPL in childhood is also shown.
Summary		V zadnjih letih so bile opravljene številne študije i antifosfolipidnih protiteles (aPL) pri odraslih, ki so pokazale razmeroma trdno povezanost aPL z arterijskimi in venskimi trombozami, ponavljajočimi se izgubami plodu ter trombocitopenijo. Mnogo slabše poznamo pogostnost in klinični pomen aPL v pediatriji. V članku pregledno predstavljamo klinične motnje, ki jih povezujemo z aPL pri otrocih. Prikazana so tudi priporočila z zdravljenje zapletov zaradi aPL pri otrocih.
