Abstract
The simultaneous occurrence of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is exceedingly rare, with an incidence of less than 1%. We report the case of a 50–year–old patient newly diagnosed with this uncommon combination. This case underscores the complexity and infrequency of this dual diagnosis, highlighting the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges it presents.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Case Reports is different from other case report journals. Our aim is to directly improve global health and increase clinical understanding using case reports to convey important best practice information. We welcome case reports from all areas of Medicine, Nursing, Dentistry, and Veterinary Science and may include: -Any clinical case or procedure which illustrates an important best practice teaching message -Any clinical case or procedure which illustrates the appropriate use of an important clinical guideline or systematic review. As well as: -The management of novel or very uncommon diseases -A common disease presenting in an uncommon way -An uncommon disease masquerading as something more common -Cases which expand understanding of disease pathogenesis -Cases where the teaching point is based on an error -Cases which allow us to re-think established medical lore -Unreported adverse effects of interventions (drug, procedural, or other).
