Autoimmune hemolytic anemia and ovarian dermoid cysts: case report and review of the literature
Abstract
A case of autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) associated with an ovarian dermoid cyst is presented. Early recognition and specific therapy for this entity is stressed for optimal results since conventional forms of therapy of AIHA are ineffectual. Unusual features of the case are discussed. The literature is reviewed and possible mechanisms of the hemolytic process are discussed.
