  • Title: Coombs-positive hemolytic anemia in Hodgkin's disease: case presentation and review of the literature.
    Author: Sierra RD.
    Journal: Mil Med; 1991 Dec; 156(12):691-2. PubMed ID: 1780074.
    Abstract:
    Immune hemolytic anemias are a diverse group of disorders that have in common the presence of red cell autoantibodies, which result in a shortened red cell span. Its etiology is diverse. Of the lymphoproliferative disorders implicated, chronic lymphocytic leukemias and non-Hodgkin's lymphomas are the most common. Hodgkin's disease was first associated with immune hemolytic anemias in 1967. Here we report the case of a patient diagnosed with Hodgkin's disease, who developed an immune hemolytic anemia, and its management and outcome. The literature is reviewed as well.
