Information
has glosseng: A hypersegmented neutrophil is a clinical laboratory finding. It is visualized by drawing blood from a patient and viewing the blood smeared on a slide under a microscope. Hypersegmented neutrophils are usually thought to be pathognomonic of the class of anemias called megaloblastic anemias (anemias caused by failure of bone marrow blood-forming cells to make DNA, often caused by vitamin B-12 or folate deficiencies, or DNA-replication poisons). However, some studies have strongly associated neutrophil hypersegmentation with iron deficiency anemia.
