Abstract
Cold agglutinin disease is a rare clinical scenario. It is usually associated with infection, drug reaction, and hematologic malignancy, such as non-Hodgkin lymphoma or lymphocytic leukemia. We report a case of cold agglutinin disease in a patient with solid-tumor uterine sarcoma. Immunological dysregulation has been proposed as the pathogenesis for this disease. We also summarize recently reported cases of cold agglutinin disease, the underlying conditions, and advances in the management of cold agglutinin disease.
