CONTEXT Hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS) is mainly characterized by massive infiltration of bone marrow by activated macrophages and often presents with pancytopenia. Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is also present with thrombocytopenia and renal involvement. Both conditions could coexist with each other and complicate the condition.

Pancytopenia can be caused by a wide variety of etiologies that require evaluation of bone marrow. This is a cross sectional study carried out to identify the various findings in bone marrow aspiration in patients with pancytopenia on peripheral smear examination. Bone marrow aspiration was performed in 103 cases with pancytopenia over a period of 2 years. Bone marrow was hypercellular in 46.6%...

Background. Pancytopenia has multiple etiologies like megaloblastic anemia, aplastic anemia, leukemia, and various infections. We investigated the clinical, etiological and hematological profile including bone marrow morphology of patients with pancytopenia in relation to their vitamin B12 and folic acid status at a tertiary care referral hospital in north India. Methods. A total of 140 consecu...

Background: Hematopoietic system is seriously affected by tuberculosis. It exerts a dazzling variety of hematological effects involving both cell lines and plasma components [1]. Anemia leukopenia are not unusual with tuberculosis (TB), but pancytopenia rare [2]. Findings: In this report, we described case 42 years man presenting bleeding pancytopenia; bacteriological pulmonary TB was establish...
