Overview
The incidence of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is approximately 5 cases per 100,000 persons per year. The prevalence of APS is approximately 40-50 cases per 100,000 persons worldwide. APS due to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is more commonly seen in the African American and Hispanic population. Middle aged women are more commonly affected by APS than males.
