Abstract
Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is a medical disorder where the immune system erroneously targets and destroysred blood cells (RBCs), causing a reduction in their longevity. This results in an inadequate supply of RBCs to carry oxygen,leading to symptoms like fatigue, weakness and jaundice. AIHA is categorized into warm and cold types based on theoptimal temperature for antibody activity. A comprehensive grasp of the immunological mechanisms involved is essentialfor accurate diagnosis and effective management of this autoimmune condition. AIHA is a frequently missed diagnosis aspatient are not fully investigated, and treated with vitamin B12, folic acid and iron in outpatient department.
