The association between autoimmunity and agnogenic myeloid metaplasia.
A patient with agnogenic myeloid metaplasia (AMM) associated with an ill-defined autoimmune disease is described and the literature on autoimmunity in AMM is reviewed. In view of the available data, it seems that the association between AMM and autoimmunity observed in our patient is not fortuitous.
