Acanthocytosis associated with myelodysplasia.
Journal of Clinical Oncology 1989 October
Dysplastic hematopoiesis associated with erythrocyte macrocytosis is a morphologic hallmark of myelodysplasia. We report the cases of six patients with myelodysplasia in which acanthocytosis was the predominant red blood cell (RBC) abnormality. In each case acanthocytes represented 5% to 10% of circulating RBC forms and was the primary reason for referral in two cases. None of the patients had comorbid conditions known to be associated with acanthocyte formation. Myelodysplasia should be considered in the differential diagnosis of acanthocytosis, particularly in the anemic, elderly individual. Acanthocytosis may be a harbinger of an unrecognized, hematologic stem-cell disorder.
