Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is an autoimmune disorder in which various types of auto-antibodies are directed against red blood cells causing their survival to be shortened and resulting in hemolytic anemia.
Features include: Autoimmune hemolytic anemia and Abnormality of metabolism/homeostasis.
