Abstract
A 55-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with suspected hemolytic anemia. He was subsequently diagnosed with warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia complicated with pulmonary hypertension exhibiting a mosaic pattern on chest computed tomography. Treatment of hemolytic anemia rapidly improved pulmonary hypertension and the mosaic pattern. Pulmonary hypertension can also occur in patients with autoimmune hemolytic anemia.
