Autoimmune hemolytic anemia in adults: primary risk factors and diagnostic procedures

Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
The severity of anemia at onset correlated with the recurrence of relapses, refractoriness, and fatal outcome reflects the presence of several mechanisms involved in AIHA, i.e. highly pathogenic antibodies, complement activation, and failure of marrow compensation.
Abstract
Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is due to autoantibodies against erythrocytes that may arise either because of primary tolerance breakage or along with several associated conditions, including g...
