Splenic Marginal Zone Lymphoma complicated with cold autoimmune haemolytic anaemia
Abstract
Splenic Marginal Zone Lymphoma (SMZL) is a distinct subtype of Marginal Zone Lymphoma (MZL) which is categorized under Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. It is usually benign with the potential to transform into diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Comorbid cold Autoimmune Haemolytic Anaemia(cAHA) is rare with SMZL. A case of a 53-year-old woman is presented here. She presented with fever and anaemic symptoms. Biochemical, radiological and histological investigations were done, and a diagnosis of SMZL complicated with cAHA was made.
