Figure 1.From: Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis and myelodysplastic syndrome: a case report and review of the literatureBone marrow hemophagocytosis and dysplastic changes in a trisomy 8 myelodysplastic syndrome patient. a Bone marrow aspirate smear revealing active hemophagocytosis. Erythroid cells are phagocytized by histiocytic cells. b Bone marrow aspirate showing neutrophil phagocytized by histiocytic cell. Peripherally to hemophagocytosis, erythroid precursor shows megaloblastic changes. Additionally, hyposegmented neutrophils are observed. c Nucleated red cell showing nuclear fragmentation with dysmorphic features suggesting dysplasiaBack to article page
