Chronic
myelomonocytic leukaemia, which was classified
by
the FAB group as one of the myelodysplastic
syndromes,
shares many features with other members
of the myelodysplastic group but it resembles
other
chronic myeloid leukaemias in that production of
monocytes and, usually, neutrophils is effective
and
hepatomegaly and splenomegaly are common.
Myelofibrosis
The median survival approaches 5 years.
Agnogenic myeloid metaplasia: its
hallmark is splenomegaly.
Leukoerythroblastic peripheral blood smear
in 96% of patients.
Teardrop cells.
Basic event: fibroblastic proliferation of
bone marrow
Chronic myelomonocytic
leukaemia
polycythemia verarelated
features are present (thrombocytosis,
leukocytosis, microcytosis, iron
deficiency, splenomegaly, pruritus,
erythromelalgia, and unusual
thrombosis). The erythropoietin level, which
is usually low in polycythemia
rubra vera, may be normal,
Polycythemia vera. (A) Blood film. Note thickness of red cell layer in an area normally less
so. No area in which red cells were normally dispersed was found reflecting a very high
packed red cell volume. (B) Blood film. Note thickness of red cell layer in an area normally
less so. Neutrophilia also evident. (C) Blood film. Note thickness of red cell layer in an area
normally less so. Giant megathrombocyte. The hallmark of polycythemia vera are evident
on the blood film: elevated packed red cell volume, neutrophilia, and normal to elevated
platelet count with platelet dysmorphia
Essential
Thrombocythemia
Essential thrombocythemia is a clonal
hematologic disorder in
which patients present with asymptomatic
thrombocytosis, thrombotic
disorders, or hemorrhage
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Blood films. (A) Blood film. Marked increase in
small lymphocytes. Smudge cells (lymphocyte nuclear remnant) characteristic
of the tendency of lymphocytes to be disrupted by the shear forces during the
preparation of the blood film. (B) Marrow film. Marrow replaced by diffuse
infiltrate of small leukemic lymphocytes.
Hairy cell leukemia. (A) and (B) Blood films. Nuclei have circular
shape. Nucleoli evident. The cytoplasm is more prominent than in
chronic lymphocytic leukemia of the classical type and the nucleus is
usually centrally placed giving a "fried egg" appearance. The
cytoplasmic surface is irregular with prominent villous projections.
