Abstract

Four patients with nonhematologic malignancies had the simultaneous finding of hemolytic anemia due to high‐titer cold agglutinins. In each patient, the cold agglutinin had β€œanti‐I” specificity and was of the IgM kappa immunoglobulin class. Although patients with hematologic malignancies not uncommonly have cold agglutinins, the association between these antibodies and nonhematologic malignancies is unusual.

Plasma exchange therapy in autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) was used in four patients (two with warm hemolytic anemia and two with cold hemolytic anemia). The size of each plasma exchange approximated I plasma volume; three consecutive daily exchanges removed 80-90% of the immunoglobulins-immunogl

The presence of teardrop-shaped red cells in peripheral blood has traditionally been felt to reflect altered marrow architecture, namely myelofibrosis. We evaluated two patients with splenomegaly, moderately severe hemolytic anemia due to warm-reactive IgG anti-red cell autoantibody, and bone marrow
