Southern Medical Journal
|July 1, 1980
Abstract:
A 66-year-old man with jaundice and a high titered cold agglutinin was found to have empyema of the gallbladder, a complication of cystic duct cholelithiasis, confirmed at autopsy. Biliary lithiasis was the apparent result of severe, protracted hemolysis caused by primary cold agglutinin disease.
