抄録: | Evans syndrome (ES) is a disorder in which autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) and immune
thrombocytopenia (ITP) occur simultaneously or serially. Most AIHA in ES is warm-AIHA
in which anti-RBC IgG antibodies are the main body causing hemolysis. In this report,
we describe a case of ES diagnosed as warm-AIHA but with a markedly high level of cold
agglutinin (CA), where cold-AIHA was ruled out. A 9-year-old girl presented to the clinic with
headache and was pale. There was no past history or family history of autoimmune disease. On
admission, she was markedly anemic and thrombocytopenic with a positive direct Coombs test.
A bone marrow examination revealed increased erythroid cells and megakaryocytes. The CA
titer was very high of 2,048-fold, but cold-AIHA was considered negative because of the absence
of IgM elevation, improvement of anemia with steroid therapy, and absence of symptoms due
to cold exposure. She was diagnosed as ES with warm-AIHA and ITP. To our best knowledge,
this is the first case of ES with high titers of CA. Long-term follow-up into adulthood is important
in children with ES because of the high incidence of subsequent autoimmune disease after
remission, while the association of CA was unknown. |
