Antiphospholipid syndrome is an autoimmune syndrome presenting with vascular thrombosis or pregnancy complications and it is characterized by persistent positive antiphospholipid antibodies. The patient presenting with cyanosis and acute kidney injury was considered as CAPS secondary to SLE/ Sjogren overlap syndrome. We decided to examine this case due to low number of cases in literature.

Keywords: Systemic lupus erythematosus, thrombosis, catastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome.
