Case History: A 35‐year‐old woman with a 3‐year history of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) was referred to a fertility unit to undergo ICSI treatment after 2 years of infertility due to a severe male factor. She had a normal ovarian reserve. The last lupus flare occurred 12 months before and was managed with corticosteroids. At the time of attending the fertility unit, she was not receiving any treatment. At the age of 28, with a different partner, the woman reported a preterm birth at 32 weeks for severe preeclampsia and fetal growth restriction, delivered by cesarean section. In the postpartum period, the patient developed a deep venous thrombosis that was treated with heparin. She was then tested for thrombotic markers and was diagnosed with positive anti‐cardiolipin antibodies.
