  • Title: Concurrent poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis and autoimmune hemolytic anemia.
    Author: Greenbaum LA, Kerlin BA, Van Why S, Punzalan RC, Trost BA, Pan CG, Scott JP.
    Journal: Pediatr Nephrol; 2003 Dec; 18(12):1301-3. PubMed ID: 14586676.
    Abstract:
    We describe three cases of poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis (PSGN) associated with autoimmune hemolytic anemia. Along with the classic findings of PSGN, the patients had a positive direct antiglobulin test. Two patients had a cold-reacting anti-I autoantibody. This is the first description of this association. Autoimmune hemolytic anemia should be considered in children with PSGN and significant anemia or signs of hemolysis.
