We describe the case of a 37-year-old female patient that was diagnosed with warm-antibody autoimmune hemolytic anemia (WAIHA) one and a half years after bilateral large-diameter head metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty. For 11 years, it was refractory to all therapy, including splenectomy and rituximab, requiring long-term oral prednisone for disease control. Ultimately, systemic metallosis and periprosthetic joint infection were diagnosed, requiring explantation of the prostheses. By the sixth week postoperatively, she experienced complete spontaneous remission of her WAIHA. In conclusion, WAIHA can be associated with systemic metallosis in patients with metal-on-metal prosthetic joint replacements.
