Active NET formation in Libman–Sacks endocarditis without antiphospholipid antibodies: A dramatic onset of systemic lupus erythematosus

Although neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) have been highlighted in several systemic inflammatory diseases, their clinical correlates and potential pathological role remain obscure.
