A Curious Case of Hemolytic Anemia with Pseudoreticulopenia.

Herein, we present a unique case of a Coombs-negative, steroid-refractory autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) complicated by pseudoreticulopenia, describe its clinical presentation, histopathologic findings, and management, and review the salient literature. Coombs-negative, steroid-refractory AIHAs represent fewer than 1% of all AIHAs. Diagnosis of the disease is difficult and often delayed due to the pursuit of alternate diagnoses following a negative Coombs test.

A Rare Case of Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis in an Adult.

This case report involves an adult patient diagnosed with a rare disease, hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). We will discuss the patient's clinical presentation, symptoms, and treatment. Due to the rarity of HLH being found in adults, we will break down the essential elements to recognize and diagnose this disease.
