Seemingly ages ago I did the NEQAS morphology exercises.
I finally got two minutes to look up the results:
1901 BF1
Male - 70 years old. Hb 136, Wbc 7.7
Giant platelets, thrombocytopenia and are those
Dohle bodies in the neutrophils?
Other than that nothing really striking. Maybe
some burr cells
??? May-Hegglin
This was
May-Hegglin.
1901BF2
Female - 86 years old Hb 86, Wbc 27.9
Lymphocytosis with blasts. Neutropenia. Mild
thrombocytopenia
The report
said this case was from a two-year old. Was there some hiccup in the admin?
1901 PA1
Field's stained thick blood film on patient
with fever who had recently visited Luanda (where's that?) and had not taken
anti-malarials.
I saw some things which looked malaria-ish but
I wasn’t convinced. I'm no expert at thick films
This was
negative for malarial parasites
1902PA2
Giemsa stained thin blood film on patient
returned from Amazonas (Brazil) with temperature of 38.5 degrees Celsius
Malarial parasites seen. P. vivax
This was P.vivax
I did OK…
