Cancer of the sigmoid colon and antibodies. A puzzle

In this work we describe the case report of a woman affected by cancer of the sigmoid colon and with a positive direct antiglobulin test (DAT) and indirect antiglobulin test (IAT). Case report with results: A meticulous medical history showed that the woman had been suffering from recurrent fetal loss. Then she had cardiac and coagulative problems. These data suggested a phospholipid syndrome. Conclusion: The patient had a medical history positive for a phospholipid syndrome and we think that this disease could explain the onset of the autoantibody.
