A 68‐year‐old previously well woman developed sudden onset of limb gangrene in association with liver dysfunction. An immediately acting inhibitor to factor V with some of the features of lupus anticoagulant was demonstrated. The patient required limb amputation within 2 weeks and activity of the anticoagulant seemed to be on the decline 6 months later. © 1993 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
