Rare co-occurrence of probable pernicious anemia and autoimmune hepatitis in a 55-year-old male patient: A case report.
This is a case of probable pernicious anemia in the setting of autoimmune hepatitis. A 55-year-old male patient presented to the Emergency Room at Dr. Ruth K.M. Pfau Civil Hospital, Karachi with complaints of diarrhea and fever and was subsequently transferred to the medicine ward. The patient also had signs of unexplained anemia. We performed laboratory tests and were able to rule out the common causes of liver pathology, including viral hepatitis. For blood, the values showed decreased hemoglobin levels and an elevated Mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) and mean corpuscular volume (MCV) (114 fL), indicating macrocytosis. Finally, we were able to conclude autoimmune pathology after the results of antibody testing demonstrated positive lab values for anti-smooth muscle antibodies, antinuclear antibodies, and anti-gastric parietal cell antibodies. The patient had developed pernicious anemia in the setting of autoimmune hepatitis, which is an extremely rare case and documented instances are scarce in the available literature regarding such cases.
期刊介绍:
SAGE Open Medical Case Reports (indexed in PubMed Central) is a peer reviewed, open access journal. It aims to provide a publication home for short case reports and case series, which often do not find a place in traditional primary research journals, but provide key insights into real medical cases that are essential for physicians, and may ultimately help to improve patient outcomes. SAGE Open Medical Case Reports does not limit content due to page budgets or thematic significance. Papers are subject to rigorous peer review and are selected on the basis of whether the research is sound and deserves publication. By virtue of not restricting papers to a narrow discipline, SAGE Open Medical Case Reports facilitates the discovery of the connections between papers, whether within or between disciplines. Case reports can span the full spectrum of medicine across the health sciences in the broadest sense, including: Allergy/Immunology Anaesthesia/Pain Cardiovascular Critical Care/ Emergency Medicine Dentistry Dermatology Diabetes/Endocrinology Epidemiology/Public Health Gastroenterology/Hepatology Geriatrics/Gerontology Haematology Infectious Diseases Mental Health/Psychiatry Nephrology Neurology Nursing Obstetrics/Gynaecology Oncology Ophthalmology Orthopaedics/Rehabilitation/Occupational Therapy Otolaryngology Palliative Medicine Pathology Pharmacoeconomics/health economics Pharmacoepidemiology/Drug safety Psychopharmacology Radiology Respiratory Medicine Rheumatology/ Clinical Immunology Sports Medicine Surgery Toxicology Urology Women''s Health.
