Abstract

Evans Syndrome (ES) is dened as the concomitant or sequential association of warm Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia (AIHA) with Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP), and less frequently autoimmune neutropenia. Its chronic course is characterized by recurrent relapses and remissions. The typical clinical course is chronic and relapsing, and therapy is generally progressive and of poor outcome. We present a case of evans syndrome who was doing well on treatment with azathioprine and steroids but deteriorated and succumbed to her illness due to non compliance
