==Overview==
==Overview==
Autoimmune hemolytic anemia is classified into 3 broad categories. These include warm-[[antibody]] type, cold-antibody type, and mixed-antibody type. Each category is characterized by a different [[autoantibody]] ([[IgG]] or [[IgM]]) and different optimal binding temperatures (37 degrees Celsius or 4-18 degrees Celsius). Each condition is associated with different triggers, including [[infections]], [[medications]], and [[malignancies]]. The warm-antibody type is the most common, and the mixed-antibody type is rare and not well characterized.

Haemolysis can be intravascular or extravascular.


'''Intravascular haemolysis'''<br>

Red blood cell lysis occurs in the circulation as a result of activation of the [[complement system]] cascade.

Overview

Autoimmune hemolytic anemia is classified into 3 broad categories. These include warm-antibody type, cold-antibody type, and mixed-antibody type. Each category is characterized by a different autoantibody (IgG or IgM) and different optimal binding temperatures (37 degrees Celsius or 4-18 degrees Celsius). Each condition is associated with different triggers, including infections, medications, and malignancies. The warm-antibody type is the most common, and the mixed-antibody type is rare and not well characterized.

Classification

Category Features Subtypes

Warm-antibody type

  • Accounts for ~75% of cases of autoimmune hemolytic anemia
  • Due to IgG autoantibody[1]
  • Binding occurs optimally at 37 degrees Celsius
  • Extravascular hemolysis (reticuloendothelial system)

Cold-antibody type

  • Accounts for ~25% of cases of autoimmune hemolytic anemia
  • Due to IgM autoantibody
  • Binding occurs optimally at 4-18 degrees Celsius
  • Intravascular hemolysis
  • Recognition by the reticuloendothelial system
  • Destruction by macrophages

Mixed warm-antibody and cold-antibody type

  • Due to IgM subtype
  • Mixed features
