Evans Syndrome Triggered by Covid-19 Infection

Year: 2025
Type: article
Study design: Case Report
Abstract: Evans syndrome is a rare autoimmune disorder characterized by the coexistence of autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) and immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). The pathogenesis involves immune dysregulation leading to autoantibody-mediated destruction of multiple blood cell lineages. We report the case of a 40-year-old female presenting with jaundice, pancytopenia, hemodynamic instability, and serologically confirmed Evans syndrome associated with acute COVID-19 infection. The patient showed elevated AST and ALT, complete recovery after corticosteroid therapy, and has remained in remission for two years under regular follow-up.
