26- Döhle bodies in neutrophil

Photos taken from peripheral blood smear for patient with septicemia.Döhle bodies are pale cytoplasmic inclusions that are parallel stacks of rough endoplasmic reticulum with bound ribosomes.

24- Fetus like Nucleus of Neutrophils in COVID19


C-shaped, fetus-like nuclei were noted in some COVID19 positive patients with aberrant nuclear projections, which we named as COVID nuclei.Recommended Further Readings: https://casereports.bmj.com/content/bmjcr/13/5/e236117.full.pdf

23- Pseudo-Pelger-Huët hypogranular neutrophil


Pseudo-Pelger-Huët hypogranular neutrophil in a female patient with MDS. Some neutrophils show Barr body, a small darkly-stained nuclear spot (represents the female inactivate X chromosome)".

22- Plasma cell versus osteoblast  


Osteoblasts : eccentric nucleus protrudes from the cytoplasm Plasma cell : the nucleus contained within the cytoplasm.
Osteoblasts are cells which are similar in appearance but somewhat larger than plasma cells... The "hoff" area is sometimes located away from the nucleus. The cytoplasm appears rather foamy when compared to a plasma cell. The size of an osteoblast is 20-25 microns .

16- Degenerative changes in blood cell morphology with samples that are collected in EDTA

4 pics

Pictures show degenerating neutrophil with indistinct nuclear segmentation and many vacuoles and Erythrocytes are crenated.

Morphologyical changes In erythrocytes : erythrocytes began to show poikilocytosis with crenated forms and cytoplasmic spikes (burr cells, echinocytes) Morphological changes in granulocytes : include cytoplasmic rupture, loss of nuclear shape, elongation or indistinct segmentation of granulocyte nuclei, loss of chromatin definition (appear to have liquefied), pyknotic nuclei (necrobiotic forms), degranulation and cytoplasmic vacuolation... Blood film should be made within 5 hours of collection from blood anticoagulant with EDTA to avoid degenerative changes
