    Abstract:
    We report the case of a patient with ulcerative colitis and autoimmune hemolytic anemia, that improved with steroid therapy, and during the follow-up showed analytical changes of iron deficiency anemia and anemia of chronic disorders. We discuss the possible etiologies of the anemia in patients with ulcerative colitis, and the treatments suggested for the associated Coombs-positive hemolytic anemia in these cases, stressing the good response to steroids in our patient.
