Autoimmune hemolytic anemia and classical Hodgkin lymphoma: a case report and literature review.

Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is rarely seen in Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) patients, with a reported incidence of 0.2–4.2%.1-3 Sporadic case reports and reviews have shown that when AIHA occurs in HL patients, it happens mostly at stages III and IV of nodular sclerosis HL (NSHL) or mixed cellularity HL (MCHL).4 We present a case of AIHA at the time of diagnosis of classic HL, stage IIIB, with a detailed review of the literature of HL accompanied by AIHA. Our goal is to give clinicians an overview of this complication for better management in the future.
