Cutis. 2001;68:283-284, 286.
Antiphospholipid antibody syndrome (APS) is a systemic disorder characterized by elevated antiphospholipid antibodies and multiple-organ involvement.

We report a case of secondary APS with multiple sterile abscesses as a novel cutaneous manifestation. We believe these abscesses should be included among the cutaneous symptoms of APS.
