Enteric duplication (ED) cysts are rare congenital anomalies of the alimentary canal that present in childhood. Although benign in most case, ED cysts have the potential to cause complications including a rare association with secondary carcinomas. Autoimmune hemolytic anemia presenting as a paraneoplastic syndrome secondary to solid tumors is an unusual phenomenon. Here we report a patient case with ED cyst described in association with intestinal adenocarcinoma and warm-auto immune hemolytic anemia, with resolution of the hemolysis upon its surgical resection.

Objective: To evaluate the short-term efficacy and safety of eculizumab for the treatment of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) in China.
Method: Data were retrospectively collected from patients with PNH who received at least 3 months of full-dose eculizumab. Changes in clinical and laboratory indicators after 1, 3, and 6 months of eculizumab therapy and at the end of follow-up were documented.
Steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome due to renal-limited thrombotic microangiopathy and membranous nephropathy after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation successfully treated with calcineurin inhibitors.

Transplantation-associated thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is a severe complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) with high mortality. As calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) reportedly contribute to TMA via drug-induced endothelial injury, treatment of TMA often involves CNI discontinuation or dose reduction. However, renal-limited TMA, defined as biopsy-proven renal TMA without the classical triad (hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and organ damage), has rarely been reported after allo-HSCT, and its optimal management remains unknown.

The absence of definitive biomarkers usually allows for aHUS to be diagnosed only through a process of exclusion. Due to the unfavorable prognosis if adequate therapy is delayed or not provided, differential diagnostic considerations and initiation of treatment must occur promptly.

An 83-year-old female patient presented with angina pectoris, hemoglobinuria and jaundice. Laboratory diagnostics proved difficult due to hemolysis in all blood tubes, following re-evaluation after warming the blood sample.With low haptoglobin, elevated lactate dehydrogenase and elevated indirect bilirubin, we made a suspected diagnosis of autoimmune hemolytic anemia with cold antibodies, which was confirmed through a positive Coombs test and detection of C3d-loaded erythrocytes.
