A.Marked or Moderate Hypercellularity

1.Malignant proliferation of abnormal cells

2.Hemopoietic hyperplasia

(1)Hyperplastic anemia

(2)Mageloblastic anemia

B.Hypercellularity

1.Normal BM 2.Certain anemias

C. Hypocellularity

1.Hemopoietic depression

2.Marrow diluted by blood

Differential Diagnosis Hypoplasia BM diluted Naked eye BM granules * Rarely visible or fatty dropMicroscopy Specific cells * Rarely visible of BM Band >segmented * Band < segmented

Hemopoietic cells Hemopoietic islands, MegakryocytesNonhemopoitic cells Plasma cell,Mast cell Osteoblast, Osteoclast

II.M/E ratio1.M:E= ↑( ≥ 5:1)

(1)M ↑ :Infection,leukemoid reaction, AML,CML(2)E ↓ :Pure red cell aplasia ( PRCA)

2.M:E = N (3~4:1 )(1)Normal marrow(2)M ↑:E ↑ =N. Erythroleukemia,

Polycythemia vera (PV ), CML

(3)M ↓:E ↓ =N. AA, Myelofibrosis, MM,ALL

3.M :E = ↓ (≤ 2:1 ) or inversion

(1)M↓: leukopenia, Neutropenia

(2)E ↑: Hyperplastic Anemia

MA,PV,Erythremia.

Targets of Myeloid Hyperplasia

1.Degrees of marrow cellularity.

2.Myeloid to erythroid ratio

3.Myeloid mitotic cells

4.Myeloid series occupy %

of all nucleated cells.

Morphologic Abnormalities

of Myeloid series

1.Abnormal cell

2.Abnormal nucleus

3.Abnormal Cytoplasm

1 、 Abnormal cell

(1)Abnormal shape

(2) Development of nucleus and cytoplasm is disproportionate

2 、 Abnormal nucleus

(1)Pelger-huet anomaly

(2) Degeneration of nucleus

(3) Hypersegmented neutrophils

Pelger-Huet anomaly: All of the neutrophils have no more than a bi-lobed nuc

leus. The nuclear chromatin is coarsely clumped. It may be found in CML,MDS or inherited.

Hypersegmented neutrophils

3 、 Abnormal cytoplasm

(1) Toxic granules

(2)Vacuoles (3) Dohle bodies: Inclusion body, a small light blue-staining area in cytoplasma of neutrophil,is found in infections, poisoning, burns following chemotherapy.

(4)Auer rods:

are rod-like bodies that stain a reddish purple, they are found only in the cytoplasm of the blast cells in acute monocytic or acute myelogenous leukemia or MDS-RAEBt
