Abstract

Several studies determined that autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is a rare extraintestinal IBD manifestation, related to the underlying disease activity. However, evidence linking biologic therapy to AIHA is sparse. This article reviews the evidence on the association of these clinical phenomena. There are two retrospective studies and a few case reports linking biologic therapies to AIHA. While some autoimmune phenomenon triggered by our biologic therapies have been well recognized, we do not find the evidence associating these therapies to AIHA sufficiently compelling.
