Dr. Navpreet Kaur, Dr. Surinder Paul, Dr. K. S Chahal

Abstract :

The spleen is an important organ of the immune system, with lymphoid, reticuloendothelial and vascular compo nents. Disturbance of any of these may cause Splenomegaly. Pertinent haematological investigations will be carried out with the aim of finding etiology and effects of Splenomegaly on haematological parameters with reference to cell counts and Bone Marrow studies. 80 cases will be evaluated to determine the common causes of Splenomegaly. The CBC and PBF examination will be done on these patients and the findings will be correlated with Bone Marrow Aspiration and Bone Marrow Biopsy. Special stains like Prussian blue, Reticulin and MPO will be done wherever required. The results of the study will be compiled and analyzed statistically
