Description

Acquired or Pseudo-Pelger-Huet anomaly develops in the course of acute or chronic myelogenous leukemia and in myelodysplastic syndromes. In patients with these conditions, the pseudo-Pelger-Huët cells tend to appear late in the disease and often appear after considerable chemotherapy has been administered. The morphologic changes have also been described in myxedema associated with panhypopituitarism, vitamin B-12 and folate deficiency, multiple myeloma, enteroviral infections, malaria, muscular dystrophy, leukemoid reactions secondary to metastases to the bone marrow, and drug sensitivity, sulfa and valproate toxicities are examples. In some of these conditions,espcially the drug induced cases identifying the change as Pelger-Huet anomaly is important because it obviates the need for further unnecessary testing for cancer. periperal blood smear shows a predominence of neutrophils with bilobed nuclei which are composed of two nuclear masses connected with a thin filament of chromatin. It resembles the pince-nez glasses so it is often refereed to as pince-nez appearance Copyright Text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License.
