Hemolytic Anemias
Hemolytic anemias result from premature destruction of RBCs, classified by site of hemolysis and underlying etiology.
HematologyIron Deficiency Anemia
Iron deficiency anemia is the most common nutritional deficiency worldwide, characterized by microcytic hypochromic RBCs and depleted iron stores.
HematologyMegaloblastic Anemias
Megaloblastic anemias result from vitamin B12 or folate deficiency, causing impaired DNA synthesis and macrocytic anemia with distinctive morphologic features.
HematologyIntroduction to Hematologic Malignancies
Hematologic malignancies are clonal disorders of hematopoietic cells classified by lineage (myeloid/lymphoid) and clinical progression (acute/chronic).
HematologyAcute and Chronic Leukemias
Leukemias are clonal hematopoietic neoplasms classified by lineage (myeloid/lymphoid) and clinical pace (acute/chronic) with distinct laboratory features.
HematologyLymphomas
Lymphomas are lymphoid neoplasms arising in lymph nodes or extranodal sites, classified into Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin types with distinct histopathology and immunophenotype.
HematologyPlasma Cell Disorders
Plasma cell disorders are clonal proliferations of immunoglobulin-secreting plasma cells, ranging from benign monoclonal gammopathy to multiple myeloma.
HematologyClassification of Anemias
Anemia is classified by RBC morphology and underlying mechanism, guiding the laboratory workup and differential diagnosis.
HematologyBlood Component Therapy
Blood component therapy involves the separation of whole blood into components for targeted transfusion to correct specific deficits.
