摘要
Iron overload is commonly seen in the context of hematological diseases in patients who require frequent transfusions. On the other hand, an association between autoimmune hemolytic anemia complicating chronic lymphocytic leukemia and iron overload is unusual. Here, we report 2 cases of iron overload in patients with a background of chronic lymphocytic leukemia complicated by autoimmune hemolytic anemia. Both patients were found to have a high liver iron concentration on liver MRI (FerriScan). This observation raises the important question about the value of screening for iron overload in this group of patients.
