Hi - I finally have managed to obtain a copy of my BMB report.
The abnormalities mentioned are;
- "Some megakaryocytes appear hypolobulated. There are multiple interstitial aggregates composed of small lymphoid cells and a diffuse population of small lymphocytes throughout the marrow. The reticulin is increased in these aggregates (WHO grade 1) but not elsewhere.
- ....the lymphoid cells are strongly positive for BCL2 (could be the numerous T cells).......Ki67 positive proliferation index <5%.
- CD61 confirms there is an element of dysmegakaryopoiesis with scattered small and hypobulated forms p53 is 5% and weak (modified quick score 3)"
Final Report
- "The features are those of bone marrow with lymphoid aggregates which appear to be benign. There is mild dysmegakaryopoiesis, insufficient in itself for a diagnosis of MDS - correlation with bone marrow aspirate is required."
Any thoughts????
