MORPHOLOGIC ABNORMALITIES OF LEUKOCYTES Flashcards
(44 cards)
characterized by granulocytes (monocyte and lymphocyte) with large darkly staining metachromatic cytoplasm granules
ALDER-REILY ANOMALY
ALDER REILY ANOMALY - autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive
AUTOSOMAL RECESSIVE
granulation, partially digested mucopolysaccharide
REILLY BODIES
prominent dark granulation, either fine or heavy = can be observe in band and segmented neutrophil or monocytes
TOXIC GRANULATION
represents an increase in acid mucosubstance with azurophilic (primary) granules
peroxidase positive
more than five lobes or nuclear segmentation
hypersegmentation
hypersegmentation is associated with deficiencies in what
Vit. B12 and Folic Acid
Hypersegmentation - Autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive
autosomal dominant
decrease nuclear segmentation
Pelger-Huet Anomaly
Pelger-Huet Anomaly -Autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive
Autosomal dominant
Shape of nuclei of Pelger-Huet Anomaly
round, ovoid, or peanut
Pelger-Huet Anomaly is a result from a mutation of what gene
lamin B-receptor gene
TRUE or FALSE - Neutrophils functions normally in Pelger-Huet Anomaly
TRUE
nuclear chromatin condenses, segments disappear, dark staining spheres, apoptotic nucleus, dying neutrophils
Pyknotic Nucleus
spectacle-like (pince-nez) morphology is found in what
Pelger-Huet Anomaly
light blue, sharply define crescent or round shape inclusion, giant platelet, usually single dohle-like body inclusion, but may be multiple
May Hegglin Anomaly
large hypogranular platelets and thrombocytopenia
May Hegglin Anomaly
seen near the periphery of the cytoplasm
Dohle Bodies
Dohle Bodies represents aggregates of what
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RNA)
intracytoplasmic pale blue or elongated inclusion located close to cellular membranes
Dohle Bodies
group of more than 50 inherited enzyme deficiencies resulting from mutations in genes that code for the production of lysosomal enzyme
Lysosomal Storage Disease
flawed degradation of phagocytized material and buildup of undigested substrates within lysosomes
Lysosomal Storage Disease
AKA Barr Body/X or Sex Chromatin
Pyknotic Nucleus
darkly stained structure in the nucleus most often found in the periphery of the nucleus
Pyknotic Nucleus
