                   D75.81  Myelofibrosis   Myelofibrosis is a rare type of blood cancer in which the bone marrow (the soft, spongy tissue inside most bones) is replaced by fibrous scar tissue. It is considered a form of chronic   leukemia . When myelofibrosis occurs on its own, it is called primary myelofibrosis . If it occurs as the result of a separate disease, it is known as secondary myelofibrosis (e.g. scar tissue in the bone marrow as a complication of an autoimmune disease). The bone marrow contains immature blood-forming cells that may develop into three types of specialized blood cells: red blood cells, white blood cells, or platelets. When a change (mutation) occurs in the DNA of a single cell, the mutation will be passed on to new cells when the defective cell divides. As time goes by, more and more abnormal cells are produced. They can also gain additional mutations making the cancer cells more aggressive over ...

                   D69.41-Evans Syndrome            Evans syndrome is the presence of simultaneous or sequential direct Coombs-positive autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) in conjunction with immune-mediated thrombocytopenia, with no known underlying etiology Evans syndrome is a rare combination of two or more of the following autoimmune blood disorders: Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) , in which the immune system destroys red blood cells. Red blood cells are responsible for carrying oxygen to the body’s organs and tissues. Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) , in which the immune system attacks platelets. Platelets help stop bleeding by forming blood clots. Autoimmune neutropenia (AIN) , which causes the immune system to attack neutrophils. Neutrophils are white blood cells that help with healing tissues and fighting infections. A person with Evans syndrome will have AIHA along with ITP or AIN. A combination o...

                                  D72.1 - Eosinophillia What is Eosinophilia? Eosinophilia refers to a condition of having an increased numbers of eosinophils in the peripheral blood. White blood cells are an essential component of the cellular immune system. Eosinophils are specific white blood cells that are a normal part of the cellular immune system, play a role in normal physiologic processes and host defense, and participate in allergic reactions and the defense against parasitic infections. Eosinophilia is said to occur when there are greater than 500 eosinophils per microliter, though the exact cutoff varies by laboratory. Eosinophilia can be considered mild, moderate or severe. Usually, less than 5% of the circulating white blood cells in a person are eosinophils. Eosinophils play two roles in your immune system: Destroying foreign substances.  Eosinophils can consume foreign substances. ...

                              D61.82 Mtelophythisis   Myelophthisic anemia is a normocytic, normochromic anemia that occurs when normal marrow space is infiltrated and replaced by nonhematopoietic or abnormal cells. Causes include tumors, granulomatous disorders, lipid storage diseases, and primary myelofibrosis. Bone marrow fibrosis often occurs as a secondary process as well. Splenomegaly may develop. Characteristic changes in peripheral blood include anisocytosis, poikilocytosis, and excessive numbers of red blood cell and white blood cell precursors. Diagnosis usually requires bone marrow biopsy. Treatment is supportive and includes measures directed at the underlying disorder. Myelofibrosis is an uncommon type of bone marrow cancer that disrupts your body's normal production of blood cells.Myelofibrosis causes extensive scarring in your bone marrow, leading to severe anemia that can cause weakness and ...

                              D56.0 Alpha Thalassemia Thalassemia (thal-uh-SEE-me-uh) is an inherited blood disorder that causes your body to have less hemoglobin than normal. Hemoglobin enables red blood cells to carry oxygen. Thalassemia can cause anemia, leaving you fatigued.If you have mild thalassemia, you might not need treatment. But more severe forms might require regular blood transfusions. You can take steps to cope with fatigue, such as choosing a healthy diet and exercising regularly. Symptoms There are several types of thalassemia. The signs and symptoms you have depend on the type and severity of your condition. Thalassemia signs and symptoms can include: Fatigue Weakness Pale or yellowish skin Facial bone deformities Slow growth Abdominal swelling Dark urine Some babies show signs and symptoms of thalassemia at birth; others develop them during the first two years of life. Some people who have onl...
