Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is an uncommon but recognized complication of a hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). Management challenges include the absence of established guidelines and variable response rates to first-line treatments. We present a case series of three patients, all submitted to HSCT for non-oncologic diseases, who developed AIHA as a complication in the following months. All three were resistant to first-line treatments and required several lines of therapy to achieve a hematological response. Although new treatments have been proposed in refractory cases, multicenter studies and management guidelines are warranted to better characterize this disease and help clinicians.
自身免疫性溶血性贫血(AIHA)是造血干细胞移植(HSCT)一种不常见但已被认知的并发症。管理方面的挑战包括缺乏既定指南以及一线治疗的缓解率各异。我们报告了一组三例患者的病例系列,这三名患者均因非肿瘤性疾病接受了HSCT,随后数月均发生了AIHA并发症。三人对一线治疗均耐药,需要多线治疗才能实现血液学缓解。尽管针对难治性病例已提出了新的治疗方法,但仍需要开展多中心研究并制定管理指南,以更好地描述这种疾病并帮助临床医生。
