title: Auto-immune haemolytic anaemia and Crohn's disease: a case report and review of the literature.
abstract: The association between ulcerative colitis and auto-immune haemolytic anaemia is well described. However, only two cases of auto-immune haemolytic anaemia occurring in association with Crohn's disease have been described in the literature. We report on a third case and discuss the importance of diagnosis and the therapeutic implications of this association.
