Study Notes

Toxic Granulation

  • Associated with severe infection, chemical poisoning, and toxic states
  • Characterized by large purple to black color granules and altered primary granules
  • Larger than secondary granules than normal, with more than 20 granules affected

Dohle Bodies/Amato Bodies

  • Appear as single or multiple blue, round or elongated bodies containing ribosomal RNA arranged in parallel rows
  • Located in the peripheries of the cytoplasm
  • Associated with infections, burn, surgery, and chemotherapy
  • Usually mistaken as viral anomaly

Cytoplasmic Vacuolation

  • A cytoplasmic change associated with cellular injury or degeneration

Nuclear Abnormalities

  • Pyknotic cell, smudge cell, and basket cell are associated with cellular death or necrosis

Non-Malignant/Reactive Disorders

  • Gaucher’s disease, Niemann Pick disease, Sea blue Histiocytes, Fabry’s disease, Wolman disease, and Tangier disease affect lysosomes
  • These disorders are non-malignant and reactive
