Autoimmune hemolytic anemia with concurrence of warm and cold red cell autoantibodies and a warm hemolysin. 1985

J Freedman, and F C Lim, and E Musclow, and B Fernandes, and I Rother

This report describes the laboratory findings and clinical course of a patient with thrombophlebitis, venous gangrene, and autoimmune hemolytic anemia. Three concomitant red cell autoantibody activities were detected: a low-titer, high-thermal-amplitude, IgM anti-I cold agglutinin; an IgG warm 'incomplete' panagglutinating autoantibody; and an IgM warm hemolysin.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007075 Immunoglobulin M A class of immunoglobulin bearing mu chains (IMMUNOGLOBULIN MU-CHAINS). IgM can fix COMPLEMENT. The name comes from its high molecular weight and originally was called a macroglobulin. Gamma Globulin, 19S,IgM,IgM Antibody,IgM1,IgM2,19S Gamma Globulin,Antibody, IgM
D008297 Male Males
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D003080 Cold Temperature An absence of warmth or heat or a temperature notably below an accustomed norm. Cold,Cold Temperatures,Temperature, Cold,Temperatures, Cold
D003298 Coombs Test A test to detect non-agglutinating ANTIBODIES against ERYTHROCYTES by use of anti-antibodies (the Coombs' reagent.) The direct test is applied to freshly drawn blood to detect antibody bound to circulating red cells. The indirect test is applied to serum to detect the presence of antibodies that can bind to red blood cells.
