Abstract
Several lipid-related reactions involving coagulation and fibrinolytic mechanisms have been described. Many of these reactions have been related to the development of atherosclerosis and thromboembolism. In this article, I review the antiphospholipid antibody syndrome, the tissue factor pathway inhibitor, the involvement of fatty acids in fibrinolysis, and the Lp(a) lipoprotein.
