Core Tip We report a case of simultaneous presentation of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Patients with MDS may have autoimmune manifestations. AS may be an early autoimmune phenomenon associated with MDS; however, the possibility of a coincidence cannot be excluded. Most importantly, AS may cause anemia, but it is usually mild. If a patient with AS presents with severe anemia, it must be diagnosed as a hematopoietic system pathology. Chemotherapy or bone marrow transplantation should be considered for acute leukemia.
