any of antithrombotic and thrombolytic therapy and due to critical ischemia and related complications called for amputation of lower

positivity of anti ds-DNA, anti cardiolipin and anti Beta-2 Glycoprotein-I antibodies as a reason for acute fulminant limb thretaning thrombotic

event on the background of incipient systemic lupus erythematosus.
