Hemoblastosis are bone marrow and extra-bone marrow neoplastic processes represented by two groups of diseases – myeloproliferative (leukemia) and lymphoproliferative (hematosarcoma). Hyperplastic, intoxication, hemorrhagic, anemic, immunodeficiency syndromes are common for all forms. Diagnosis includes a general blood test; sternal puncture, trepanobiopsy, lymph node biopsy with examination of the material; instrumental studies (ultrasound, radiography). Treatment of…
Hairy cell leukemia is a chronic B-cell lymphoproliferative process that occurs with a predominant lesion of the bone marrow and spleen. Clinically manifested by hepatosplenomegaly, lymphadenopathy, lymphocytosis with “hairy” lymphocytes, pancytopenia. The diagnosis is established taking into account the data of the blood picture, immunophenotyping of lymphocytes, ultrasound / CT of abdominal organs, bone marrow…
Thrombotic microangiopathy is a polysyndromic pathology that combines thrombocytopenia, hemolytic anemia, arteriole occlusion with the development of ischemic organ lesions. Clinically, it proceeds with fever, bleeding, neurological disorders, abdominal syndrome. Possible development of TIA, myocardial and kidney infarction, hepatitis, mesenteric ischemia. Diagnosis is based on the study of blood (renal syndromeblood test, platelets, LDH, metalloproteinase…

The main clinical manifestations of the hematological syndrome include dizziness, weakness, fainting, shortness of breath, tingling in the chest, skin hemorrhages, bleeding, a tendency to develop infectious-inflammatory and purulent processes. The disease is diagnosed on the basis of…
Diamond-Blackfan anemia is a hereditary form of red cell aplasia with a reliably unexplored type of inheritance (an autosomal dominant type of inheritance is assumed to occur in a quarter of patients).
