More recently, the patient was found to be iron deficient and has been treated with several courses of IV Ferrlecit and also placed on Procrit to help support her hemoglobin. This was done, because on screening for a possible transfusion, the patient was found to have ALO or ALOE ??antibodies, but the development of a new autoantibody rendering it very difficult to cross match her for red cells. The patient, however, did not have autoimmune hemolytic anemia, just serological findings of an autoantibody.
