Title: A case report of Evans Syndrome. Author: Dosi RV, Ambaliya AP, Patell RD, Patil RS, Shah PJ. Journal: Indian J Med Sci; 2012; 66(3-4):82-5. PubMed ID: 23603626. Abstract: Evans Syndrome (ES) is the rare simultaneous or subsequent development of immune thrombocytopenia purpura (ITP) and autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA). It portends a poorer prognosis and a more aggressive line of management than either condition presenting alone. Here we report a case of a young female who presented with both bleeding and acute decompensated anemia. Although she was successfully treated, mystery still shrouds the etiology, pathophysiology, as well as line of management of this rare and enigmatic disease.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
