Pernicious anemia
|
RBC: macrocytic, anisocytosis, poikilocytosis with teardrop forms and pear shaped cells as well as oval macrocytes. nucleated reds
Whites: neutrophils with 5 or more lobes (hypersegmented) Platelets - thrombocytopenia common |
|
hypochromic microcytic anemia
|
red cells: smaller, increased pallor, some anisocytosis and poikilocytosis. Target cells frequently.
WBC - na Platelets - can be thrombocytsois? |
|
sickle cell anemia
|
RBC: normocrhomic, normocytic, anisocytosis, poikilocytosis, elongated cells, drepanocytes. Ovalocytes, target cells, howell-jolly boddies. Polychromasia and nucleated RBC may be seen.
WBC - neutrophillic leukocytosis with left shift common Platelets - normal or moderately increased |
|
thalassemia major
|
RBC - thal minor is just microcytic like iron deficiency. Thal major - severe hemolytic anemia. anisocytosis, poikilocytosis, microcytosis with some macrocytic cells. tear drop cells. hypochromia. Howell Jolly bodies, target cells, normoblasts, polychromatophillia.
WBC - normal Platelets - low |
|
MAHA
|
RBC - schistocytes, helmet cells (if TPP esp). Microspherocytes may be present. Polychromasia.
WBC - luekocytosis depending on cause Plateletes - thrombocytopenia depending on cause |
|
AIHA
|
RBC: spherocytosis, poychromasia, nucleated RBC
Whites - varries Platelet - normal typically |
|
Leukemoid reaction
|
RBC - normoblasts may be seen
WBC - leukocytosis, immature band cells and metamyolcytes. platelets - normal or up |
|
Myelofibrosis (myeloid metaplasia)
|
extramedullary hematopoiesis in spleen, liver, lymph nodes
RBC - tear drop shaped erythrocytes, with ovalocytes also common, nucleated reds WBC - variable count with left shift Platelet count - varies, with abnormal forms being seen |
|
AML/ANLL
|
RBC - normochromic anemia or normal
WBC - atypical and typical blasts - large cells, round/oval nucleus, one or more nucleoli, bluish cytoplasm. platelets - thrombocytopenia |
|
CLL
|
RBC - normochromic, normocytic
WBC - leukocytosis with majority mature lymphocyte - uniform mirror images. cells may rupture leaving smudge or basket cells platelets - normal or low |
|
Infectious mononucleosis
|
WBC - lymphocytosis with atypical lymphocytes. Extreme variability in lymphocytes. Cytoplasm with vacuoles and zurophillic cytoplasm. dense chromatin
RBC - normal platelet - normal |
|
CML
|
RBC - normochromic normocytic anemia
WBC - granulocytosis with more mature elements predominating. Myeloblasts are less than 5% of the differential. Basohils and eosinophils increased RBC - polychromasia, basophilic stippling, normoblasts Platelets - thrombocytosis with abnormal forms |
|
Multiple Myeloma
|
RBC - normochromic, normocytic anemia. rouleauxx formation from serum protein. leukoerythroblastic picture possible.
WBC - low count, occasionally see plasma cells |
|
ITP/ATP
|
platelets - low, those found often megathrombocytes
WBC - normal or increased RBC - unaffected |
