The authors report a case of chronic lymphatic leukemia occurring four years after the onset of pernicious anemia. Multiple immunological abnormalities were detected. Hemolytic anemia with auto-antibodies and anti-thyroglobulin antibodies. Anti-intrinsic factor antibodies of type 1 were found but disappeared later. This case, the 9 th in the world literature, emphasizes the links between pernicious anemia, an auto-immune disease, and malignant disorders of the lymphatic and immune systems.
