Recurrent thrombosis is a common complication in various pathologies and is part of the definition of antiphospholipid syndrome. We report an observation in which the patient presented with repeated thrombosis, due not only to an antiphospholipid syndrome with partial thromboplastin time with normal activator, but also to a resistance to active protein C linked to the existence of the Leiden factor mutation V. This observation confirms the most often multifactorial nature of thromboses and therefore encourages the search for resistance to activated protein C before an evocative clinic, especially if the routine coagulation assessment is normal.
