Abstract: A 64-year-old woman presented to the hematology clinic for follow up of refractory chronic cold agglutinin disease with hepatic iron overload secondary to a chronic red cell transfusion burden.Management had included single-agent rituximab and ciclosporin, to which the disease had proven refractory.She had recently received a first cycle of bendamustine and rituximab.On review preceding a second cycle, she was tired and lightheaded and scleral icterus was noted.A blood sample was taken urgently and conveyed to the laboratory for testing.Full blood count results, compared to results from three weeks earlier, are tabulated.
