Abstract
Aims and Objective: Hematological disorders are quite frequent in all age group. Most of this hematological disorder first present as anemia. Bone Marrow Aspiration plays a major role in the diagnosis of its underlying cause. The aim of this study was to analyze the spectrum of hematological disorders.
Materials and Methods: This was carried out prospective study of Bone marrow examination of 130 cases in suspected case of hematological disorders. All details of the patients were obtained from the record file in the department of pathology of our hospital.
Results: Among the malignant hematological disorders, Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) was the most common disorders 12(9.23%) followed by CML 8 (6.15%), CLL 5 (3.85),ALL 3(2.31) and MDS 2(2.31%). Among the non-malignant hematological disorders, Megaloblastic anemia 35(26.92%), Iron deficiency Anemia 17(13.08%), Dimorphic Anemia 28(21.54%), Bone marrow Hypoplasia 8(6.15%) and ITP 3(2.31%).
Conclusion: Bone marrow examination is an important step to arrive at the confirmatory diagnosis of many hematological disorders.
Keywords: Bone marrow examination, Non- malignant hematological disorder and Malignant hematological disorder.
