Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is a clinico-biological syndrome, which associates vascular injury and persisting antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL). Patients with clinical symptoms of APS but without aPL are defined as "seronegative APS" (SNAPS). The aim of this study was to evaluate antiphosphatidylethanolamine antibody (aPE) investigation in patients with SNAPS suspicion. This retrospective study was conducted in patients with SNAPS suspicion. A homemade enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to search for aPE. The results of this homemade method were compared with those from a global screening ELISA. Two hundred twenty-eight patients with SNAPS suspicion were included. Among them, 58.3% had a thrombotic event. The homemade ELISA found positive persisting aPE in 23 patients (10%): 15 with a thrombotic event, 6 with obstetrical morbidity and 2 with a combined event. The global screening ELISA was positive in only 11 of these 23 patients (47.8%). These results suggest the implication of aPE in SNAPS.
