Abstract		Background. Three patients with antiphospholipid syndrome and lung involvement are presented. Exccept in one case, lung pathology was caused most probably by thrombotic and thrombembolic events in the lung circulation due to antiphospholipid syndrome. In one case however, equivalents of ARDS were observed with two differential diagnostic possibilities - catastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome and exacerbation of systemic vasculitis with secondary antiphospholipid activity. Conclusions. We emphasize the possibility of lung involvement in antiphospholipid syndrome due to thrombotic and thrombembolic events in lung circulation.
Summary		Izhodišča. Prikazani so trije bolniki z antifosfolipidnim sindromom z ugotovljeno pljučno prizadetostjo. Razen v enem primeru smo jo razložili s trombotičnimi in/ali trombembolčnimi dogodki v pljučnem obtoku v sklopu antifosfolipidnega sindroma. V enem primeru pa so bili ugotavljeni ekvivalenti ARDS z diferencialno diagnostično dilemo med katastrofalno obliko antifosfolipidnega sindroma in zagonom sistemskega vaskulitisa z le spremljajočo antifosfolipidno aktivnostjo. Zaključki. Opozarjamo na možno prizadetost pljuč pri antifosfolipidnem sindromu zaradi trombotičnih in/ali trombemboličnih dogodkov v pljučnem obtoku.
