3 October 2017 (Tuesday) - Green Crystals


The Lablogatory people sent a rather interesting case study today.  More and more I’m hearing about the “green crystals of death”. Refractile bright-green irregular inclusions within neutrophils have been reported as a marker of impending patient death for a little while now. However they need a proper name: I can’t report “green crystals of death seen” on a blood film report, can I ?
