Paraneoplastic hemolytic anemia associated with prostate cancer. A case report
We present the case of a patient with localized bladder (high-grade infiltrating papillary carcinoma pT1) and prostate (Gleason 7) cancer who developed warm antibody autoimmune hemolytic anemia during radiation therapy for prostate cancer. It was resolved with prednisone (1 mg/Kg/day, tapering schedule). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time an autoimmune hemolytic anemia is described in the literature as a paraneoplastic syndrome in such early stages of tumor disease.PMID:36477085 | DOI:10.23938/ASSN.1023
