abstract="According to J.C. Piette the defining and classifying of criteria for antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) were in 1996, a \&#8220;mission impossible\&#8221;. There was no clear evidence that APS should be regarded a unique entity. The categorization between \&#8220;primary\&#8221; and \&#8220;secondary\&#8221; APS was difficult to achieve.  In the present paper the history of APS criteria is discussed. After the last decade we have formulated a new version for the classification criteria of APS \&#8211; nevertheless many questions require further studies: \&#8211; etiopathogenesis of APS is not clear, \&#8211; \&#8220;primary\&#8221; or \&#8220;secondary\&#8221; APS remains unresolved problem, \&#8211; multiple additional factors for thrombosis demand identification,  \&#8211; it ought to be specified which antibodies\&#8211;apart of included in criteria \&#8211; could be markers in \&#8220;seronegative\&#8221; APS. We are still waiting for the \&#8220;common biological denominator\&#8221; based on scoring system encompassing immunological abnormalities as well as clinical symptoms, to formulate the \&#8220;ideal\&#8221; criteria for APS.",
