Acquired hemolytic disorders-autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA), cold agglutinin disease (CAD), paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), drug-induced hemolysis (DIHA), and acquired hemolysis not otherwise specified (AHNOS)-are considered rare. Despite their potentially major health implications, data regarding their incidence and prevalence are scarce.
