Antecedent presentation of aplastic anemia in a patient with diffuse large B cell lymphoma

Immunological manifestation occasionally develops concurrently with lymphoid neoplasms, including immune thrombocytopenia and autoimmune hemolytic anemia, but rarely reported acquired aplastic anemia (AA). Here we present a female case of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) with antecedent presentation of AA. Recovery of AA was noted after complete response to lymphoma treatment. Literature regarding this issue was reviewed.
