Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AHA) is a well-recognized entity associated with ulcerative colitis. Only a single case of AHA previously has been reported in association with Crohn's disease. We describe the first case of this association in a child with perinuclear antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-positive Crohn's disease.
