Infantile Cytomegalovirus-Associated Severe Warm Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia: A Case Report [PDF]

Children, 2017
Autoimmune hemolytic anemia is a rare hematologic entity in children. Etiologies are mainly viruses or bacteria. We describe here a case of severe warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia (IgG- and C3d-positive direct antiglobulin test) in an immunocompetent 6 ...

Management of autoimmune hemolytic anemia. [PDF]

Hematology Am Soc Hematol Educ Program
Abstract Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is caused by premature erythrocyte destruction mediated by autoantibodies (auto-Ab) with or without complement activation. The most frequent form (60%-70% of cases) is warm AIHA (wAIHA), driven by immunoglobulin G auto-Ab that react at body temperature. Cold agglutinin disease (CAD, 20%-25%)

Warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia in adults in Latin America: A scoping review [PDF]

Hematology, Transfusion and Cell Therapy
Background: Autoimmune hemolytic anemia is a rare disorder characterized by the autoimmune-mediated destruction of red blood cells. The condition is classified into subtypes based on the thermal reactivity of the autoantibodies, with warm autoimmune ...

Atypical autoimmune hemolytic anemia

Haematologica, 2011
9/L (10-90), bilirubin 1.5 mg/dL (0-1.0), lactate dehydrogenase 1715 U/L (normal < 210) and ferritin 697 ng/mL. The blood film showed microcytosis and coarse basophilic stippling consistent with β-thalassemia trait. Only very occasional spherocytes were noted and there was no agglutination.

Autoimmune hemolytic anemia [PDF]

Hematology, 2018
AbstractThe diagnosis of autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) can be made with a stepwise approach that aims to identify laboratory and clinical evidence of hemolysis and then determine the immune nature of hemolysis with the direct anti-globulin test. Once alternative causes for these findings have been excluded, AIHA is established, and the clinician ...
