“…6,7 AIHA, which was ruled out in our patient with a negative direct Coombs test, has been shown to co-exist with PA in rare cases. [8][9][10][11] Her improvement with continued vitamin B 12 supplementation further suggested that concurrent AIHA was unlikely, as true AIHA typically requires glucocorticoids, splenectomy, or other immunosuppressive agents for adequate response. 12 Pseudo-TMA is a rare manifestation of PA that occurs in approximately 2.5% of cases of vitamin B 12 deficiency.…”

Pernicious anemia appears to be autoimmune in origin and is associated with immune disorders of several organ systems. We report 4 patients with pernicious anemia and immune cytopenias, an association that may sometimes pose diagnostic problems unless specifically considered. Pernicious anemia coexisted with or was closely followed by idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura in 3 patients and by autoimmune hemolytic anemia in a 4th patient. In addition to cobalamin therapy, all patients required corticosteroids (2 also received danazol), while 1 also required splenectomy. All 4 patients were women. The 3 patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura were also blood group 0 and were iron-deficient. Autoimmune cytopenias may occur in patients with treated or untreated pernicious anemia and require specific therapy.

Pernicious anemia is a common cause of vitamin B12 deficiency. Here, we discuss a case of a young woman who presented with severe anemia along with a history of iron deficiency anemia. After a review of her clinical presentation and laboratory data, we identified an autoimmune hemolytic anemia and a concomitant pernicious anemia. The concurrence of both these hematological diagnoses in a patient is rare.
