Abstract

The association of immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) and autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) with Hodgkin’s disease has been known for many years.

We report a rare case of Evans syndrome in a patient 3 years after autologous bone marrow transplantation for recurrent Hodgkin’s disease.
