myelofibrosis - scarred bone marrow

Myelofibrosis, one of the myeloproliferative diseases, is the gradual replacement of the bone marrow by connective tissue. more

Myelofibrosis, one of the myeloproliferative diseases, is the gradual replacement of the bone marrow by connective tissue.

The replacement of the bone marrow tissue reduces the patient's ability to generate new blood cells resulting in chronic anemia. A prime feature is "extramedullary hematopoeisis", i.e. the remaining blood-forming cells migrate to other sites in the body, e.g. the liver or spleen. Patients will typically have an enlarged spleen and liver, (hepatosplenomegaly), and examination of the blood cells will show "teardrop cells". less
