Implication

Case report addresses cold agglutinin disease and its implications in red blood cell agglutination, suggesting warm transfusions as a primary treatment.

Key Points

Treating cold agglutinin disease with warmed red blood cells improves hemoglobin levels and reduces hemolysis.
Laboratory results can be misleading due to the interference caused by cold agglutination in blood samples.
Assessment through bone marrow study can reveal underlying conditions like low-grade B lymphoma concurrent with CA disease.
First-line therapy for cold agglutinin hemolysis focuses on temperature management and warm blood transfusions.
