Core Tip	The association between ulcerative colitis (UC) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a rare phenomenon. We first diagnosed a patient with coexisting UC and SLE with refractory autoimmune hemolytic anemia. Combined with the analysis of the cases indexed in PubMed, plasma exchange (PE) has been reported as a promising strategy for treating refractory autoimmune hemolytic anemia. The patient was successfully treated and maintained stable conditions through PE and continuous treatment with cyclophosphamide and hydroxychloroquine. Therefore, personalized treatment is currently the best approach.
